She Danced

Introduction:

As in previous posts, I experiment with how my poetry appears, and sounds when editing and putting finishing touches together. This is certainly the case with todays poem.

I had always been in awe of poets who manage to compose and publish a masterpiece of a Love Poem. Therefore it has always been a goal and a dream of mine to compose a Love Poem, purely and completely from imagination. But also one that sticks in the minds of the readers as a love poem in which they carry away as examples in which to use for future loves etc.

Thus I composed todays poem with that intent and at least give it a good shot. But folks who have read my poetry all along will notice that I have changed things a little. I was always precise to keep syllables to 10 per line. Yet that is not always possible when the basic feel and flow of the poem may change if altered to fit to such a precise expectation of how I want my poetry.

The other areas are, I begun taking in extra notes on how poetry should be or could be written. This is a strange one for me as I stuck thus far to how I learned when studying English Literature. But also wanting to keep learning and being available to alter when needed for such poetic work.

I also welcome any hints , tips and other suggestions from other readers that may help in my poetic journey. But for the moment I would welcome anyremarks on how follks go about Naming a poem, This can be an art in itself, because long complicated titles can take from the poem. Also this is an area I struggle with and tried a little different way for todays poem.

About The Poem:

Like the previous poem, I altered things a little to strive topwards my aim in creating a poem that will let it’s mark. Or such was the hope when I set out on composing todays poem.

Writing a love poem is an aim I wish to perfect a little better, But also creating a poem that flows easily and works towards taking the reader along with the journey as it were. Thus My usual 10 syllables per line has been altered slightly, and changed in areas to keep the flow of what was beeen stated within the poem.

It is an aim of mine to find an area which fits well with how I write and work with such poetry. I also wander off often, in in composing which takes from the flow and ease of the poem. Basically saying here was so many areas in which to change, I am finding the other end now rather tah when I first started publishing my poetry here.

Like always I welcome feedback and even tips, hints etc, If they work with my writing I will use but If not then they may not be used, But kept on file to use in future.

There is not much to say regarding todays poem except that it is a Love Poem and I hope it appears as that.

Having said all of that: Please enjoy todays Poem.

She Danced



She dances down the lane with an extra skip, 
Intent on leaving her mark, a subtle trip. 
Her eyes, like stars in the vast blue sky, 
Add an extra sparkle, my heart does sigh.

Unaware of the impact her beauty does bestow, 
All who see her, it's clear as a rainbow's glow. 
Humble to her core, yet demanding more, 
As she passes by, hearts drop to the floor.

Her fragrance lingers, sweet as summer's bloom, 
No makeup could mask her natural perfume. 
Like a lone white cloud in the azure light, 
She's a vision of beauty, a stunning sight.

Intoxicated by her scent as she glides past, 
I struggle to stay still, the moment won't last. 
Tasks forgotten, I'm lost in a daze, 
Captivated by her beauty, lost in her maze.

Her beauty, a treasure not mine to claim, 
Beloved by strangers, she passes without aim. 
In a stranger's eyes, she's a divine prize, 
Envy fades as he holds what he still tries.

ENDING THOUGHTS:

Thank you for joining me on this journey, which is my journey through writing and learning more regarding composing poetry. They say that life is a journey which for me translates into poetry a journey onto itself.

At times I experiment on methods or way how I can improve my poetry, therefore getting feedback is always most welcome for such as these.

Some of my poetry contain topics that at some point will or may not contain issues that readers either agree with or do not, or they have experienced or They will disagree with completely. YET that is Perfectly fine with me. But Poetry is a form of art work that I enjoy and thus using it in a manner to touch or inspire the reader.

My path through writing and publishing Poetry on this blog is a journey beyond any expectations. And numbers have grown past anything I ever expected. In the end of any post I have to Pass on my thanks to you for joining me on this journey.

Poetry for me is a constant learning curve that I always strive to improve. Often due to the speed of my typing and a few other issues, mistakes and typos will find their way into published posts. I continue to work on improving this as I move along.

Please forgive for any such mistakes and for your understanding this.
