My bones are beautiful where they rest
In the crux of your loving disposition
*
There is wonder in romance,
In the capacity of a soul
That had seemed too savage
For reprieve
*
Poetry is composed
As a human heart
Wild but reticent
I divide continents
And constituents
Into chambers for both
Conquest and exaltation
*
There’s nothing as decadent as introspection
The dimensions I’ve seen overtake the stars
In both eradicative and incendiary capacity
*
This is a hint for the prompt

Intriguing poem and intriguing hint!! I have no idea of course but I shall spend the next day guessing!! 🙂 🙂
Thanks Helen =)
My wife hates when I use the word crux. I don’t know why. It is as good a word as any, and it fits so nicely into your poem. Personally, I love the word crux and I love this poem. Great work!
Thank you I am so glad you like it =) For me the word quagmire gives me the creeps there used to be a commercial that used it haha
Truly remarkable!
Thank you Lydia =)
Interesting as always Yves and of course you hint at I don’t know what. I look forward as always to tomorrows prompt. Bring it on!!
=) I hope you guys will like it I can say that it is much lighter than the current prompt
You know we will as Helen said we shall lie awake all night in anticipation.
haha I hope you get a good night’s sleep
No chance now you have tempted me…lol

Gorgeously powerfull. Loved this part especially:”Poetry is composed

Wild but reticent
I divide continents
And constituents

Conquest and exaltation”
Thank you so much I am so glad you liked it!
Hmmm….decadent introspection. Interesting idea. Am I warm? Do you take prompt requests? I just wrote a passionate poem on failure and I think that would be an interesting prompt. If you take requests I will hold it off until you post the prompt. Let me know.
I do take suggestions but I have a series planned at the moment so I have several weeks worth of plots in the series left. That said I would love to hear your idea!
Amazing poetry! 🙂
Thanks Kev =)
This is remarkable, I read it several times and it just amazes me, such beauty in your words.
Awww thank you Lisa
sometimes as I have mentioned before – read and re-read what you write – sometimes my own failing I cannot grasp needing the Thesaurus at hand 😉 but this I absorbed and read twice – purely for the beauty in your words. x
Thank you so much Jenny and I do use rather odd words at times. I always have the thesaurus open as well because I learn new words from reading all the time
my hat goes off to you, if I could remember them at least – I’d have a fighting chance lol
I read one of your recent poems and the vocabulary was beautifully chosen =)
ah – thank you ~ sometimes I try harder than others – just did your prompt
Ooooh awesome =)
What a beautiful mind you have! To divide, devise and design such visions for us to read. I read this 5 times and each time a new ah-ha moment! I love your illustration! 🙂
Thank you kindly MichelleMarie =) I can’t draw I am afraid so I try to create images with my words instead
You do that so lovely! I am very visual and have a great imagination. Thank you for the visual. 🙂
I can see from your beautiful art you have a wonderful imagination =)
Undeniably believe that introspection can be: positive, negative and balanced, the latter is the hardest to get!
It is indeed
