mmm, wonderfully done. And I think the icon is absolutely fantastic, it helps...excentuate the poem. Or something. :)

Yes, I don't get to use that icon too often. Glad you liked the poem!

Mmm... gorgeous writing as always, luv. I especially liked the mention of pearls and the light imagery in
light to his shadow
day to his night
tempting, luring, entangling him
in a web of warm, honeyed sun

See, once you got over that threshold, the words kept coming :-) Lovely poem, and the descriptions are beautiful and very vivid.

Ps. Any chance of you telling who he is, is there? I've tried to guess, but am not completely decided...

Actually, this started out as prose, but then I realised I could just change the formatting a little and post it as a poem, thus receiving extra points! Hahahahaha! Anyway, so happy you liked it.

And I deliberately kept the pairing ambiguous, so it could be Will, or Jack, or even Norrington. *G*

I shall ignore all other possibilities and believe it's Jack, then, just because... ;-)

Well, yes--you and me both. ;)

Ah, the delights of Miss Swann's honey-hued hair.

It's all beautiful but I am with the second stanza all the way. I am sure that any of the three likely men would love to be entangled in Miss Swann's web of warm, honeyed sun.

I expect so. We all have our favorite pairings, and who am I to rain on another's parade.

Thank you for the lovely comments!
