All Of You

Posted byChristine BoltonPosted inBlog, LoveTags:, , , , , , , , , 
Your smile lights 
The stars in a night sky
An embroidered blanket of sequins

Your grace warms
The winter of my heart
Thawing the frozen ice always there

Your kindness
Gives joy like a spring lamb
Filling me with hope for the future

Your deep love
Lingers in scented blooms
Of vibrant perennial flowers

Laura is hosting D’Verse tonight and our challenge
is to write in the poetry form devised by Karan Naidu, which he called a Parallelogram de Crystalline (apparently dedicated to his soulmate, Crystal Rose)

Poetry Rules: Despite the titular length it is quite simple and short!

• 12 lines in total (each Capitalised but without punctuation)
• 4 verses
• 3 lines per verse
• syllable count per verse 3,6,9
• unrhymed

Poetry Theme: the beauty of a (real or imaginary) lover as compared with and described in images of nature.
(Crystalline literally means very clear or bright, therefore, keep the complementary images crisp.)

I have been writing poetry since I was a child and it has helped in the good times and bad times. I am always looking within to find the answers to life's problems and to write thought-provoking poetry and prose. Thanks for checking it out. Christine
