This Night

~ a sensual little scribble ~

                        

 

                This night…

 

Let there only be moonlight

and your breath upon my skin

painting my cheeks a fevered blush

my lips softening the crush of yours

 

Eyes veiled with wishes,

souls wrapped in beams of light

exposing every secret

whispered sweet….passionate sips

between love’s kiss

 

For nothing is hidden…nor forbidden

not the power of my fragility

as weakened in your strength

pressing us closer together

 

I catch my breath…you breathe me in

               

Hearts beating wild,

 like the dance of a windblown flame

 captured

                                                      this night

       

                                                we breathe us

I knew I was going to love this from reading the first two lines. So sensual and passionate, but not aggressive or uncouth. I love that you can convey such a sexy scene while still keeping it classy. Perfect poem for someone's bae on Valentine's Day! Amazing job

Nothing is little about this scribble! Delightful, with a punchline at the end "we breathe us" which finishes it off perfectely, like the final note in a symphony of love.

You are very kind. Thank you :) Julie

I knew the moment that I read this, that it was one of your finest works of art.
You have a beautiful way of expressing such lovely thoughts
and an incredible sense of sensuality that spills across the page
as your words flow so seamlessly in to poetry.

Thank you for sharing another of your amazing poems with us,
This should go in the front of your book as most enjoyed reading.

Love it,
and the lovely poet I call my best friend,

Huggs, Trace
