Dear Anonymous

poet, I read your words as I touch the pages where your pen paints mind’s song I am consumed with the fire of your torch, for each strophe you brush soft against my skin I taste the honey of your offering In the quiet room as I sit I join your soft sensual ride colored by your passion’s pulse Sighing at reads end feeling all you’ve given, sated hunger’s spirit. Now; mind’s thirst is quenched until we and the words meet again Your Anonymous fan

Additional Notes:
An older work dusted off and refurbished... :)

Lora, I wonder, like I often have at the nuances of what will never be, but will always be. The texture of this piece is so personal, it became something I might have written, and remembered exactly the way you wrote it. Strophe, what a brilliant use- so out of use and yet brought alive in your words. Hunger and spirit, characterized in words that exceed all but the awaited kiss. Beautiful and haunting. Well done lady. I'd never tell of the "dusted off", the art stands on it's own, nevertheless.

This reinvent is a seductive play on words which provide the most beautiful imagery; where the writers heart touches the readers soul you have some stand out lines; always Lora style- nothing but breathtaking verses; Easing the reader in the second verse captures the spirit in this piece - while anticipation builds - every human sense is lit up as you continue to gently flow on with one of the most unique endings I've read to date - Anonymous Fan - Bravo!! On my list - I've read this at least five times just to enjoy your talented poetic style - blessings, Deni

This is a privately intimate reflection of the feelings and reactions to a particular moving piece of prose. It reads like a personal letter. This is written in present tense so a few thoughts: in the 1st stanza how about "I read your words and I touch the pages...". To me that sounds more intimate. In the 2nd, since you are talking about honey how about changing "skin" to "lips" as in..."for each strophe (nice word) that brushes against (or over) my lips..." A nice piece here that is hard to critique as it really needs nothing. Please accept my humble offerings as a sign of respect and encouragement. Cheers!

Hi again, Lori: This is quite a nice poem from an anonymous fan. We would all love to receive such a complimentary, intelligently written poem in our honor. I love: "I am consumed with the fire/of your torch, for each strophe/ you brush soft against my skin/I taste the honey of your offering." There are other lines that I love also. This is well written, and tells a sweet story as it goes. Fabulous work!

WOW That was beautiful. Any poet so be so honoured as to have that worked penned about them. So many your references strike a cord with me. Esp the end stanza and the sadness I feel when a great poem ends. But as you say until I and your words meet again. :)
