CAPULET
They call her
the Queen
of Drama
the world’s
her stage
another day
another tale
no apathy here
maybe a tear
or gleeful delight
late at night
forever a leap
into another dance
soaring the sky
on waters of life…
share my life
be my Romeo
and
I
your
Juliet

Romeo and Juliet is easily my favorite of The Bard. It’s such a sad, but powerful tale of Love. Your poem is wonderfully done, and a fitting tribute to Capulet…

So passionate, and so well written. I love the way you describe her.
*sigh* sometimes I wish it were that simple, to just ask one to be my Romeo….and I his Juliet…but life doesn’t work that way.
September 16, 2010 at 6:42 am
No it does not, so sad 🙂 It will happen!! Mwah xx

Yes, a timeless theme – and you have certainly done it credit here! As for the image, I think you’ve outdone even yourself (and that’s saying something!) – it’s incredible!
September 16, 2010 at 6:59 am
Took a bit of time finding the right image 🙂 Thanks my friend, happy you liked and thanks for reading!!!! Mwah xx
September 16, 2010 at 1:15 am
I don’t want us to be Romeo and Juliet – they die!
(How about Anthony and Cleopatra? Wait, no… same thing!)
September 16, 2010 at 7:03 am
Darn…that won’t do will it! LOL…Always a delight to have you here and reading your comments Eric. Have a good day my friend xx
September 16, 2010 at 1:36 am
And with this, I deem you ‘Queen of Hearts’ !!!
Tres bien, ma cherie!!! This was wonderful! The story of a story – EPIC!!
(by the way, one of my close friends calls me drama queen… so this felt real close to the heart… :)… but my story is still going on!! :))
September 16, 2010 at 7:06 am
Nous deux sera le drama queen ensemble…my 2nd name!! And true, our story’s still ongoing!! Yeahhh…happy you enjoyed darling and hope your day goes smoothly. Sending you many hugs across the ocean!! Mwah xxxxx

Ah! A romantic escapade! A fanciful flight into romance! The illustration is perfect for the verse. The music, too. I love to hear the violin…and the sound of birds chirping at the end adds to the mood! Thank you for sharing, Amanda!
September 16, 2010 at 7:11 am
We should never ever forget the romance of life…even if just in our dreams…you are welcome my friend and thanks so much for always supporting me. You are one special Lady!! Hugs xxx
September 16, 2010 at 8:43 am
You are so good at writing of poignant romance, Ms B, here’s hoping your life is blessed with it as well. Myself I’m more into dry leaves and howling winds 🙂 Nicely written!

Beautiful painting. The words of a fine tipped brush. Spoken in the tongue of non-vocal origin. Words that can only be seen in color, and high definition of a black and white soul.
God Bless you

A poem and picture worthy of this great them. Just lovely.
I didn’t realize I had missed so many of you posts, Amanda. I’m so enjoying catching up though …
Thanks for all your wonders. 🙂
Hugs! and xx

Very romantic – but as I read it, I thought how the words “They call her the Queen of Drama the world’s her stage another day another tale” could be about most of us poets…the world is our oyster! And regardless of what we are feeling inside we can write about whatever we choose.
Anyways…can’t stop….I’m off to look for my Romeo….
Have a great week!! 😀 xx
September 21, 2010 at 11:19 am
I had to laugh when I read your comment, Kavz says that her friends call her the Queen of Drama too and this one suits her so much!! And so true, the world is our oyster…never ever stop looking for that special Romeo…he is waiting there somewhere just around the corner…(we hope) xxxxxx Have a great week too darling xx
