Welcome to Moondustwriter Thursday.
It's a day I like to promote the poetry of friends.
Daniel Audet is a wonderful writer whom I have the privilege of knowing. He has an incredible back round: He writes fiction, writes songs, hosts a radio show (or two), and drove a truck. I am blown away with his writing and his poetry is...
Well you read it and tell him what you think.
Thanks Daniel!
She Waits
a poem by
Daniel Audet
The fury of her love
threw her hair wild.
Light from a thousand stars
shone in her liquid eyes.
Echoes of laughter,
hard rain of kisses
all haunt me
still.
Blinded by the
brilliance of her spirit
I turned away, for a moment.
She whispered “close your eyes.”
“Open your heart and you will find me”
She was gone.
An anguished desert before me
for an endless season
I walk upon burning sands
til I reach the other side
Where she
waits
Jamais...
a poem by
I should never have…
Loved someone like you
saw the world in your eyes
freely laughed
cried some
too
too
*
I should have…
I should have…
Thought first
Run away
Held back my heart
not been caught in your
embrace
**
embrace
**
I will a l w a y s...
Remember your smile
Love your deep voice
Treasure your touch
Yearn for one

Thanks A. Dombrowski for the Martini shot

Thank you, Daniel. Your poem shines in the spotlight. Moonie's poem following it creates an amazing overall post of love poetry. What an excellent Moondustwriter Thursday!
Lovely pairing.
Two for the price of one.
I love these thursdays, always such wonderful pieces you leave us with, Moon! These are a touch on the sadder side, but no less beautiful for it. They go well together, these two.
wow - two wonderful poems
thank you both so much
what i loved about daniel's poem is the vision - once you have seen "something" and know that's just the right thing - you will have all the energy and patience to cross the desert and walk over burning sands - cause - in the end - you know you'll get what you have longed for - and she waits…wow!
Great Poetry Both!!!
MDW...C'est magnifique!!!
Such beautiful poems.. evoking all kindsa feelings in the reader.. feelings of longing, sadness, an uncontrollable love...
And the lovely images totally complemented the excellent words...
This is wonderful work, Daniel... Kudos, my friend!
