reminiscent

by Maria Massarella

they spoke of lemon-scented valleys
and zephyred nights when a lover's
eyes would climb balconies just for
one glimpse of her
dance the stars on serenaded breath

Can we elect you Princess of Romance for your poetry touches lyrical and soft, whimsical and sweet, it opens the heart to the possiblity of all that love can be. smh.

This is breathtaking... Were only those days here again...

That is a striking title, Maria. I like the casual yet sensual element you’ve incorporated into this compact verse, or should I say, visual escapade. Good use of metaphor with a Shakespearian touch.

"they spoke of" - what a fine beginning - it speaks of legends and tales worth telling and retelling. You delight the senses in this one and the last line is magic.
