Strobe
( a quatern )
‘Tis her lover that brings gathered roses,
How their cold dewy thorns sting the night.
In the amorous rites that this poses,
Letting in tiny streams of moonlight.
When it trickles from blooms in its flight,
‘Tis her lover that brings gathered roses.
To partake in the sweet of its sight,
Lays beside, shares the prize touching noses.
In the quiet dusk, his lover dozes
‘Tween the dark heavy drapes meant to hide.
‘Tis her lover that brings gathered roses,
For the garden of his fetish bride.
Rolls her tongue, wipes the stain from her lips
While she turns to wait as the door closes.
Once the sheet falls away from her hips,
‘Tis her lover that brings gathered roses.
‘Tis her lover that brings gathered roses,
How their cold dewy thorns sting the night.
In the amorous rites that this poses,
Letting in tiny streams of moonlight.
When it trickles from blooms in its flight,
‘Tis her lover that brings gathered roses.
To partake in the sweet of its sight,
Lays beside, shares the prize touching noses.
In the quiet dusk, his lover dozes
‘Tween the dark heavy drapes meant to hide.

For the garden of his fetish bride.
Rolls her tongue, wipes the stain from her lips
While she turns to wait as the door closes.
Once the sheet falls away from her hips,
‘Tis her lover that brings gathered roses.

This is beautiful...the old school sensuality captured me most.🌹
You damn poets with the ability to keep it under 50 syllables to a verse make me green with envy.😅

Re: Re. Strobe
I understand, love.
I’ve been doing this since I was a kid ( no formal training either though some believed otherwise till I set the record straight...), learning over the years by observing, trial & error, inquiring, and practice practice practice.
In fact, it’s ironic; because I started out as a trad artist ( also with no formal training ), then later, wrote my first poem. The irony? I always represented those who have the passion, just not the professional guidance, yet I kept going and now - especially during my current tenure here at DU - many assume I’m part of the literary establishment.
Well, I guess I am by comparison, but at heart ( and this is the deal-breaker ), I’m still and always will be the humble barefoot interloper/ outsider who never forgets what it’s like for the novice... with the passion.

The Celestial One, has plucked diamonds birthed from star beds, and placed them as a continuous string that she weaves through my hair.

Jadey, I read your lengthy reply above, the short bio, and was fascinated. The poem, too, is enthralling. Excellent...

Gosh, thank you my dear friend. I’m so glad you like this piece, it’s kind of special to me. And thanks even for reading the impromptu bio blurb moment I had.
My love to you and dear Ninja. x x

Hi, Jade🥀
This is a beautiful piece. I feel as though I've read it before (perhaps in another DU forum).
Of significant appeal to me is the transposition of the chorus (A) line through all positions of the successive quatrains -- a kind of universal searchlight that comprehends and controls everything. Only coincidentally am I discovering that that is the character of the quatern! It reminds me of ternary form in music, in which successive episodes are alternated with a fixed idea, thus: ABACABA, etc.
When I try my first quatern (soon), I'll ask your opinion on whether I'm on track.
