Here is a poem rich with Grecian lore, penned by a true poet, Barbara Di Sacco. In her own words,”Barbara Di Sacco, an Italian poet from Tuscany, considers herself a citizen of the world
but her roots are very deeply rooted, in her own land, in the culture of ancient civilizations, mixed
by the winds and the sea.
This inspires his singing
that she tries to paint with words. 🦋”
I hope you enjoy this as much as I do! 🦋🙏🏻📖✍🏻
“Cerere e Core”
The plain seethes
and to Dionysus
sacred serpents slither
from Mystica cista
to the gray clays.
Hot iron blacks
crows fly
in trails of fire.
The Calato has shed its ears
on myrtle crowns
buns, white wool and poppies.
The Via Sacra of Arcadia
hear the songs
sacred rites to Demeter and Persefone
feminine, fertile wombs of the fields
in the rituals of the Mysteries.
Blindness in return
of interior view
to repay the love
of gloomy Avenues
deep in Hades.
Seven pome grains
red as blood
they paid knowledge
for six months to return
to mother earth
and you are to lie down
in the dark cave.
For blind is love
in the eye of the Triad. 🦋🌓🌒🌑 Barbara Di Sacco ©️ 2023
Elegance
Ok, I admit it, and am very fortunate of this!!! I found this poem in @Deadmans Press group, created by none other than R.M. En This masterfully written piece is written by Roz Washington and he definitely caught my attention with the supplied image! Now, I can tell you that I honestly appreciate beauty and marketing, and Roz did both in aces hand in hand with this piece titled Elegance! It is So fantastically written that I read it immediately twice to fully absorb and truly appreciate his words. Here is a genuine piece of beauty a piece of true “Elegance”.
Elegance…
It is the way she plays with her hair,
the way she surprises me with a soothing massage,
the way we can chat about indirect and opaque,
the way she’s patient and graceful,
yet emotional and playful,
blends of simultaneous turns to blend with her,
with each one,
you’re stretching a different muscle in my mental,
of course there are changes in the way she’s gonna wake up,
the beautiful thing about Life is,
that everyday is different as well as her respected beauty,
beauty being everything,
it’s not just the smooth skin and complexion,
it’s her gestures and responses,
the vibrations are a constant,
they seem to steer me in her direction,
even from afar,
if she’ll be willing to dress up and take a picture for you,
she thinks of you,
keep the conversation,
actions are temporary,
thoughts are infinite,
soulwaves felt are eternal,
her aura transcends,
reaching me in my cosmic realm,
time is no longer,
the sands are a floating weightlessness,
I am beheld in how she has firmed my senses,
all of them have been set afire,
I have even tasted things differently, due to her arousing me to test my palate to a detail, just for instance…
It only takes an instant effort to be of a genuine elegance to the one of a worthy desire to please for mutual pleasure…
I warrant so from her…
