White Linen

"At the heart of love lies the quickening of senses, the thrill of touch, the perfume of passion, the taste and the voice of love, the vision of the beloved…"Kathleen Blease

 

art ~ Vidan ~ The Unveiling

 

In white linen

we linger…

 

his hands finding the softest curves

my breath caught

in the folds of his linen sheets

where I forget fear,

                                      and all the weary things fade

in the light and living of his touch

flooding my soul

                     as I sigh and swoon

and all the night silences to hear

the sweetest passage of a song

                     yes,

the music set about his honey tongue

serenading me ‘til passion melts in bliss

and dawn sweeps the morning sky

                                in pink

                                           … and white linen

this is so beautiful. it oozes love & passion through your elegant words which dance off the page. you are ever the romantic, painting deep portraits that take us away to another dimension where time stands still. this makes you just sigh in amore and is beyond deep. holding us in a delicate loving embrace. what's not to like?

I'm noticing that you've used the "s" sound quite a bit thru-out, which gives the read a silky sound & also enjoying your alliteration: "flooding my soul as I sigh and swoon" . . . This is nicely sensual & graceful.

I love how you painted the after-glow sky in the colours of the feelings of the lovers.
Pure sensual writing of the highest calibre Julie.

This was soft and visually laid out. I love how you captured how the solace of the bed can be such a safe and far away place.
