Ropes of Velvet
A flash like a thunderbolt with magnetic consequences caught me
When your almond shaped eyes gazed into mine, I was hooked
With our vision locked in union I passed through your visual portal
Your hazel circle bid me welcome as I passed through
I could hear a hypnotic rhythm that hooked me like a fish
There was its source of the harmony, cradled on a velvet cushion
Side by side lay your heart and soul purring like a kitten
I immediately felt a secure blanket of warmth being drape around me
A sense of belonging filled me as I set sail on the sea of tranquillity
A summer breeze blew towards who knows where, a new love dawn!
The heart shaped sun radiated love as it rose, puncturing the horizon
This rose tinted orb looked somewhat familiar, yes it was my heart
I grasped the telescope to look closer and could see you
Ropes of velvet were being thrown over my heart, which purred
My love was being captured by you, could I or did I want to resist?
As the ropes secured, down each side a rose laden fence was created
Totally enraptured, captured I snuggled next to you on velvet cushion
Two hearts beating as one, two souls linked for who knows how long?
Boarded a plane to who knows where, revelling in uncertainty
You and I placing our faith, our love into our flight to happiness
The not knowing, the lack of a flight plan gave us a buzz of anticipation
We looked at the sky as it raced beneath, looked at other and kissed

HI, Philip
Tapestry of love life and a poet imagination; All of that I found in your write.
The poem sounds wonderful.
“”Ropes of velvet were being thrown over my heart, which purred
My love was being captured by you, could I or did I want to resist? “”
Gentle yet powerful like a thunderbolt.
Great poem!
Thank you,
Zuzanna
