The serenade of seduction

A Poem by EmpressPoetess

 

The serenade of seduction

(The songstress sat at a little distance from his feet,

Poised and serene, confident in her femininity.

The attitude at which she bent over her harp,

Was easy and graceful, as a dove intent on song.

Two lips were exposed, ripe, fresh and melting,

A chin, in whose dimples lurked a thousand cupids.

Miles of glossy black curls escaped from beneath her cape.

His fingers longed to be lost in the darkness such tresses.

His eyes twinkled at the sight of her long delicate fingers,

and his heart became filled with pure rapture

At her ability to arouse such beauty from the voice of the harp.

 

Her Song as it flows.)

“Hear now, love’s woeful cry before the twilight hour

Lift up the veils that darken the delicate moon

Listen for whispers beyond ears hearing power

As lovers hasten to embrace amidst the ocean’s dune



Let not bitter weeping be heard beyond thy breast

When amorous souls refuse the blessing of sleep

For it is here, that beauty loves to sit and rest

And arouse the heart of lovers, in love so deep



A charm of pearls, beaded upon a golden chain

A gift, in hopes to please his lady of enchantments

Around her neck he places, her heart he hopes gain

With whispers of his desirous endearments



Aching to read, consent from warm virgin eyes

To kiss the sweet, sweet lips not kissed till then

To feel her tenderness, in lovelorn sighs

And share love’s pleasures in purity, not sin“.

This poem reminds me of some Greek Goddess and her followers of love.
This is a excellent write, and you captured the mystique of this seductive song.
It's very visual, colorful. There is a soothing here, as well as a longing.

I love this line: A chin, in whose dimples lurked a thousand cupids.

Very magical indeed!
