Prologue
Prologue

By Sarah Probe S.

The daughter of a French speech therapist mother who was the Lover of Opera and French Poetry, I was also a fan of Pierre de Ronsard, and Sandro Botticelli, I am a painter and a poetess, the author of  " Mesmerising Poetry “ ( Valse de Poèmes ) and " Poesie Aphrodisiaque " 

My work is inspired by enchanting feelings of true Love, and by the passion of nature and travelling ( not all my poems are biographical but more " a Love fiction " dramatic kind of poetry )


Due to some poems being extremely intense and spiritual, I don’t recommend them to be read by under 16 years old teenagers ( Poetry can, as a matter of fact influence sensitive minds and emotional souls )

The first part of the book defines the splendour of feelings of Love in both its light and happiness and progressively the second part portrays it in its darkness and sadness, like an eclipse of emotions.....

I hope you’ll enjoy being spiritually transported to an enchanting world, inspiring your souls and hearts....

Read, and fall in love.......

Chapter 1
Hymn To Spring

By Sarah Probe S.

Flora the goddess of Flowers,

At the time of nature’s rebirth,

The stormy March’s wind Zephyrus,

Kidnaps and marries nymph Chloris,

Beautiful covered in roses,

Who transforms into deity,

She becomes the goddess of Spring,

The eternal bearer of life.

Layers of flowers scattering.

In diaphanous layers of white.

Here the Three Graces are dancing,

Venus is standing in her arch,

And there Mercury clothed in red,

Armed with his sword and his helmet,

With his caduceus aiming through,

Trying to reach for one sin’s fruit,

And blindfolded Cupid aiming,

With an arrow of love-dazzling.....

Author Notes In homage of the famous painter Sandro Botticelli, artwork: Primavera s painting .

Petals

By Sarah Probe S.

Among his possessions, she drew all his attentions,

Dying slowly the rose could not survive,

Little by little she lost all of her petals.....

Sat on a rock admiring,

Reflecting our face,

Feeling so happy and safe....

Cleopatra

By Sarah Probe S.

Her sweet voice a sound of mandolins,

Her precious lips ranks of rubis,

Her scent of Oud and spices,

Rare her eyes of onyx,

Soft her golden skin,

she’s a goddess,

Lioness,

That is,

Her.

Chapter 5
Power of Love

By Sarah Probe S.

Rich of the treasures of the divine grace, 
Spiritual gifts no wealth could purchase,
I remained intact through an immense faith,
Demonic forces forever restless,
I prayed that light prevails over darkness,
For a happy world my hope was endless,
Saved by God's Grace, miracles were countless,
Pursued by evil, blessings limitless,
Not to regress to eras of distress,
One tyrant to others profiteering,
From each other's crimes an evil routine,
Spoil the perfect land I was praying for, 
The Dream of heaven I was longing for, 
The love of the good, hatred of the bad, 
Learn lessons from past wars, to move forwards,
The evil history and work towards,
Learn peace and tolerance: a happy vibe !
When feeling down keep hope and faith alive,
Rejoice ! Surround yourself with good people,
When travelling walk with pride around the globe,
When distressed face enemies with humour,
When attacked use fearlessness as armour

Author Notes inspired by Cleopatra s empowering Love for her armies and her people ( 25 verses mostly of 10 syllables each )

Dance of Love

By Sarah Probe S.

Her eyes are like sapphires,

The one his heart desires, 

Her brows fields of agar,

Her neck a gold pillar,

Her face a museum full of art,

Her love a cure for his heart,

His soul became engaged at the sight of her voluptuousness,

She flies and she flies in his dreams of sumptuousness, 

His eyes have seen the glory in the majesty of her wings.

You have let them all destroy my fortress.....

He was the night angel of her dreams,
But one day satan had entered him,
And he let all her enemies in,
It's a war field left inside of him,
The darkness of a world of his own,
His evil heart seeking,
The pure colours of love,
Beauty he only seeks to destroy,
What God has made pure he just seeks to soil,
Accomplishes what demons control....

Sorrow

By Sarah Probe S.

I saw once a lover through your eyes,
I now see an enemy inside,
The demon behind the mask you wore,
Seeking the pure colours of my love,
My love you only seek to destroy,
I have once quenched your thirst of true love,
With the divine wine of my pure soul,
You drank from the rivers of my heart,
The envious started casting a curse,
They have unleashed demons upon us,
God wants us to remain together,
They had separated forever....

Melancholy

By Sarah Probe S.

How do I melt your heart of ice, 
When your anger's waves crash in mass, 
Only the light of divine grace could set alight, 
The flames of your dying love inside, 
The tears of my eyes overflow with sadness, 
To die to the shores of my lips of princess, 
My heart overwhelmed with loneliness, 
I endure with distress, 
Those unhealable scars that weaken, 
Step by step the light of my flame, 
The weight of those chains that burden, 
My encaged prisoner's heart remains, 
Unable to spread anymore its wings,
Day after day persisting, 
My soul's forever dying....

Author Notes portraying the feelings of separation of a soulmate ( 15 verses )


Chapter 18
Tragedy

By Sarah Probe S.

The reflection of your pure soul,

Through the mirrors of your eyes, 

Even when the sun doesn’t rise,

Makes my heart bounce with joy,

And makes my soul rejoice,

It’s endlessly pouring love,

If you shut your eyes I fall,

You behold the candles of my life,

Inside the lanterns of your eyes,

That separate your path from mine,

That the demons between us seek to destroy,

They’re exhausting the lights of my soul,

Hissing like snakes in your ears,

Distorting the truth of our love. 

Author Notes obstacles obstructing true Love ( 13 verses )

Sorrow

By Sarah Probe S.

Of affliction is my consumed soul,

Of tears of sorrow my eyes overflow,

Your tenderness how to forget,

Your smile two ranks of pearls,

Your eyes two ocean waves,

Swelling under the magnificence,

Of your beautiful face......

The Promise

I could not save you,

My beloved Cherub,

When satan had separated us,

Demons at all sides around us,

Angels could not save us,

Once God's revenge accomplished,

Our enemies will be punished,

We will then be reunited,

Never again separated....

We will be happy forever, 

Forever and ever we will....

Of an evil madness they became obsessed, 
With your prayers my soul could be saved...
