Angel Creation
A lover brings your body to life.
A poet sets your spirit free.
Those who put love to music must be saints,
And those who sing are angels.
Thank you for the fire that burns within.
Thank you for making my spirit soar.
Thank you for sharing the music,
And making me an angel.
If I could lie beside you,
And pet those poet words,
The maestros, they would praise you,
And the heavenly choirs would sing...
Glory, glory, glory,
For your rhyme and your meter and your love.

Well, it is a lovely poem, Amp, and much poetry is indeed music or musically created. I know you didn't write this to me (besides, my dear, I'm taken!), but I enjoyed it nonetheless, as much of my poetry is composed with a guitar nearby. You always edge your poems with a slight hint of the forbidden, a glimpse of a peeping Tom through pebbled glass, and it makes your poems shine!

It's the tenderness in this that gets me, and the lack of braggadocio. One feels that this is very close to your speaking voice?
(Thank you for gving me the opportunity to use "braggadocio". Usually I'm too pusillanimous to use such big words!)

You have always been an angel, I'm sure, to write thoughts like this. This is so heartfelt and well written.
May you keep soaring!

My pleasure, and yes, you are terribly shy. I'm glad you are coming out of your shell. ;)

Amp, this is so beautiful. I love your work and your words. Thank you for posting.
You are right about Prince. I'm so glad he's beginning to open up.

Not that kind of angel...your naughty side is worthy of a few halleluiahs, I'm sure. ;)

If I didn't know you (Not, of course in the Biblical sense) as a lady, a Christian, and a Murican, I'd suspect a soupçon of sarcasm here!
Speaking of shells you DO know the lovely Ogden Nash:
The turtle lives twixt plated decks
That practically conceal its sex.
I think it clever of the turtle
In such a fix to be so fertile!

Underneath the veil is yet another veil. Will the real Prince at last reveal himself or will we be forever fancied with his subtle nuances.

The "real Prince" - as in the "real illusion"? Actually I did catch a glimpse of him once. You know how when you look at yourself in a mirror, you always know beforehand that you are about to do so and so, perhaps, you prepare your expression?
Once however I was riding up in an escalator, preoccupied in my thoughts to the extent that I became oblivious of my surroundings. I looked to my left and in what I assumed was the down escalator I caught sight of a face ads before I could edit my reaction, I thought Mournful, Jewish, dissatisfied... and yes, I then realized that it was my face and I was horrified - not at the Jewish part but at the other two!
I named the protagonist of the next novel I wrote "MJ Davidson" and MJD is the name of the directory in which I keep my romantic communications, but I reconfigured the initials to stand for: Manic, joyful, defiant!
