Amor and Psyche

-

Amor and Psyche*

 

The romance of passion and soul

Amor knocks to bedroom door

Every night he needs his wife

Psyche always waits patiently

 

Castle tangled in ivy

Eyes cannot see his face

He would disappear like dust

But childish love is sweet

 

Psyche cannot know lover’s name

Amor has untouchable soul

He has been around the world

Even he can’t win with love

 

His own arrow hit him

Now his kisses wake her up

His feathers fall on neck

Soft tough wings at the same time

 

He left blue cornflowers on bed

Golden stardust in her eyes

“Who are you, my sweet lover?

Would it be good to never know?”


* Poem inspired by Canova's sculpture and Roman tradition.

Note No. 56 - Last Word About England And Scotland

12 th  September 1820   Dear diary, William is going crazy but you probably know it well. Why was he screaming yesterday? That is a really good question. I honestly did not know... Actually, nothing happened... I mean... It was impossible to find out! When I went to Catherine, she and Mary (my wise women!) told me what happened - William Anthony.... Ah! Let me tell you tomorrow!  Today I feel a little bit sour when I remind myself that tour... Different place every day... And those sad people and sad weather... They all were bored and they did not even know about it... It made me sick at the end... I spent two days nothing but laying in bed. My head was all the time aching and William said that I looked thin.   London. That is where I was born. That is what my parents knew before they left me... They could stay and live a little bit longer... Now I have new family and I am glad but that place made me feel so melancholically. That world is gone forever. Also, jus...

Note No. 54. ROMAntic Day in Italy

10 th September 1820   Oh! I thought I would have written about England and Scotland today or maybe I would have started my new one-act drama, but my husband really like to ruin my plans… Yes! He took me for a romantic dinner instead! Unbelievable, right? What can I say? He just knocked to my chamber this morning, flowers in his hands (he said he picked up those field flowers by himself; I do not know where he found a meadow in Rome but ok) and he did not let me say a word – he just came and kissed me! And then he said, “Do not worry, my dear, I have prepared everything for you, my queen”. Ah, he is such a sweetheart! Then we left our residence (after breakfast and two hours of preparing THIS look; I mean my white-blue English style dress) and he knew exactly where to lead me – a little super cute restaurant. Only for us! Violin sounds played all the time, I have tasted so many completely new dishes to me that I look like I am with the third child now! We were there until ...
