This is written based on Living Poetry’s Music prompt: Concierto de Aranjuez: II. Adagio
The tangerine sun sets on our last night together
The breeze is humid
an excuse to our moistened eyes
Your skin still burns on mine
My hair is still soaked in the summer heat
Tonight the song is sorrowful
Tomorrow you’ll saddle for a foreign land
leaving my wanting heart behind
How much slower a second can be
split in half, even a quarter
The moon shows her sad face
glistened with tears blotting the sky
My soul wilts
Latching on your strength
till the morning glow bathes our sin clean
The last sight of you
Combing the mane before your journey
My hair become fragrant and sleek
Dust and cracked soil takes you away
Our love is tainted all over again
Cassa this love poem is gorgeous, it hits every one of the senses and places us there alongside you. Every line is so lovely I can’t find a favorite. Sending my love to you Joni ❤️🦋🤗🌹

How interesting! I got the same sort of melancholy/desert vibe from the music. Thanks for writing to the prompt!

Those opening lines!! The ‘tangerine’ sun rose immediately in my mind gorgeously.

One doesn’t get the full impact of your lovely words unless they are read with that music playing.

Thank you Rob. I do agree. The piece is purely written on the music, it feels like I interpreted what I heard as a story.
