Hello, beautiful readers! Tomorrow is Valentine's Day, and dVerse's Poetics invites us to write a piece related to the holiday in their "From Your Valentine" prompt. Sanaarizvi invites us to choose one of three prompts: 1) Love Potions and Concoctions, 2) Love Letters Through Time, or 3) Love in a Digital Age. Over at Moonwashed Weekly Prompt, Eugi encourages us to write a poem using the word luster, so I decided to combine the two prompts.
I decided to write a poem for option 1. I chose an Reverse Etheree form, which is a poem of ten lines with each line losing a syllable (10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1).
Love Potion
clear your mind of all past admirations
envision perfect imperfections
pour a base of solid friendship
stir in sexual desire
mix 'till full of luster
sprinkle with laughter
add honesty
and patience
create
love
