Her gaze is fixed
on a thing of love
and I may admire
unobserved
her lovely face
may see it radiate
a soft glow of light!
And all those things
which I may neither
touch or know
broils within me...
Spirit distilled by soul
and at last
my love knows words,
both silent and whole.

hi tyro
to me, in this poem the words flow in an ethereal matrix...
some wow lines for me in your poem are:
spirit distilled by soul..
and at last
my love knows words,
both silent and whole.
a pleasure read tyro...

The way you have poured out your feelings just got me imaging how physically might look, nevertheless a male animal doesn't scrime for nothing there must be something biting him. I like it any way thanks.
Hello tyro
seems it's only me not to get the first stanza especially "fixed on a thing of love"
However I read with awe the line
"Spirit distilled by soul"
and the last closing couplet.
Enjoyed
Thank you raj
