Love Knows No Boundaries

His guitar strummed the strings of her heart
while the words of love echoed in her ears,
beat of each note told his loneliness impart
the message came through loud and clear

melody was like sweet wine to her taste
nimble fingers played each melodious chord
images in his head of flowers and black lace,
the advances for her were hard to ignore

lonely guitar told the longing to be loved
miles were wide as rivers and deep ravines,
couldn't keep him from his sweet dove
going home to her by whatever means

each precious moment they shared together
stored in her treasured memories forever.

    "His guitar strummed the strings of her heart"
    This poem already starts with such a beautiful line! This is really great imagery!

    You've used all those poetic devices really well in this poem, it makes a great read. Personification, simile and many others of which I don't even know the names.

    And such a beautiful theme to write about!

    Thanks for sharing!

    What an exquisite piece here.
    The sonnet is beautiful and the imagery so painful to think that he is left lonely.

    The first word in the sentances should be capitalized, but over all, I like this. It had some good emotion in it. Good imagery. Good flow. Good rhyme. =) Thank you for entering my contest.

    I just recently found out that a muscian friend wrote a song for me, and there was no feeling like it. He remembered a moment in time from years ago and turned it into a song. Your poem brought that back. Thank you.
    Blessed Be,
