Love Spell

Words spiral around me
As they fall from my lips
Floating... dancing
To my quickening pulse

Plucking the universe
In crystal form
Bejeweling red curls
And a broken heart

Whispering love letters
Into the wind
Chanting... chanting
Your name

In hopes that you may
Look my way
Look my way...

Dana

  5. Keep whispering that love spell! Maybe a little louder if they don't turn around!
    I could practically see words spiraling around and falling! Beautifully written!

  7. I like this very much. The repetition is so very effective.."chanting, chanting" and "Look my way, look my way." I do hope that whispering love letters into the wind brings love. If so, it would be a beautiful thing!

  8. Nicely done. As others have said, I too like the rhythm with the repetition. I always think this adds something special to a poem.
