Clear and bright,
flowing from the core of genuine lands
they flow holding the crystal light...
I dip my fingers to touch its stream,
your tears, I found you forlorn
in your eyes I see my face.
Your dreams...
My shores are old like your water,
wet, staunch stones engraved, traces of eons.
You gave me a dream, our beautiful daughter.
To us life is not just a passing evening reverie,
our hearts settled on the right side.
I listen, yours is talking to me...
All rivers come to the sea, my dear,
with the same boat, the same sails we softly glide.
No pain, no tears, no hurts, no fears...
You painted my heart with colors unseen,
of summer of autumn of winter and spring,
I gave it to you, open, my only love token.
Your touches sooth, whisper softly, your love unbroken.
For you I sing...
Heaven opens for us its door with heavenly songs.
The harp, the flute, our hearts’ love theme.
Our dream...

It is the "unseen" colours of love that add colour and shape and texture and life to our lives. This is beautiful poetry, Sonja - your voice here so rich, yet so very gentle too.
I loved the way you've applied colour here without mentioning it - well done! I get a sense of lasting colour here...rich, earthy, soft and flowing like water, like a lover's whisper... yes, this poem murmurs and whispers. And you've even added the colour of music too...
Thank you for this lovely entry, this river of love.

Outstanding
This poem has a wonderful quality to it, very light and airy. I liked how you comforted your lover with warmth and understanding - taking away his sense of sadness. This has a lyrical flow and I liked the way you occasionally used rhyme, especially twards the end. A creative poem full of metaphors and subtle romance.

Beautiful, soulful & serene. Wonderful penning, my Friend. Good luck in Nic & Namita's contest.

You're right. It's amazing how one prompt can lead to so many different thoughts for different people.
You put this in a most original way...making the readers see colours without putting a name of any of them in words. Muted, subtle, earthy colours...and soothing, soft ones in the end. Very touching piece.
Good luck in the contest.

Very Beautiful
This is so calming and very beautiful Sonja. I re-read it and it was even better the second time. You are such a romantic, sensing and sensual soul.
