With Love from Venus

~ a romantic sonnet ~

art ~ Venus by Laurie Blank

 

 

~~~

Of an evening star’s sensual delight

passion gently flairs warms the dark of night

Taste the sweet treasure elated lovers share

with a sultry kiss… innocence beware!

 

Let the tender spark radiate a thrill
Can you feel me fall, will you catch me still?

Safely in the arms of beauty we set sail

heartbeats intertwine as moonbeams regale

 

Floating gracefully, softly with the ease

of a whispered breath captured on the breeze

Warmed with the desire scented of the earth
Fly sweet butterflies…true loves precious birth

 

Oh the fantasy once only dreamed of
from my heart to yours, my Adonis love

~~~

Very captivating poetry you've come up with. Loved the way you turn your fantasy-visions to the analogies of love-words. Short, simple ... clear, concise & very realistic it is! I must say, Choice of words, depth of thoughts & the way you fill the page with musically romantic words's what makes your poetry one of my fav. for sure. Nice work... keep it up!

Beautiful sonnet, Julie. I like the form, it's the English style, myself I prefer the Italian version, but you have put here - again - one of your masterpieces. Sensual, romantic feelings you have set down here like only you can, Julie. Very well done. I love it. :) Rudi

[MsJewel]

Such a beautifully sensual, sighing painting of warmth and light... Each wondrous brush stroke makes the skin tingle and wish for this love to never end... for the world to just fade except for this dream.
