Angst Awaiting The Crescendo

He watched her in her deepest sleep,
whispered ….

’Hey lover,
the yearning for a simple caress
runs deeper than the darkest void.
Intensely, I ache, for you.

Consume myself in craving
to satiate your every last tendril of
breath, heartbeat, lustful passion.

The only quench
to my incessant thirst
is you.

Allow me to
sip you, devour you, exhaust you, enter you where
we shall dine together
on cornucopia delicacies
of devoted reverence.

Embrace my nakedness
as I embrace yours,
and we shall further unmask,
wade through inmost essence to
reveal truest form
of original abandon absolute.

Allow me to taste you
as you drip with intensity.

Unfurl my lover, release.

Surrender yourself,
make welcome the upsurge of life within
awakening like the eye of a storm in you.
Allow me to be the raging wind accompanying
your tirade of actualising frenzy.

Together let us create
a crescendo,
an alliance,
a gathered unison of
rhythm universal,
celestial impressions,
etching itself like a pairing in our souls.

Let us create our own explosion
with the intention delivering only bliss
oh,
the bliss…

All for you.

But for now, my love,
hard as it is not to wake you -

I shall watch you in your deepest sleep
and ravage you in the morning.’ 

Author's Note

This was a challenge where I had to start the poem with 'He watched her in her deepest sleep.'

I am trying to enhance my imagery ...

Whoa Nelly…I had to turn on my fan and wipe the sweat from my brow! Not a hot flash mind you; just hot and couldn’t blame this on living in Florida! Still wishing we had a walk-in freezer here in the office! KWP, may I say you do not have to worry about being deficient in your use of imagery. Much more improvement and you’d have to upgrade the parental guidance rating from ‘PG’ to ‘R’ or even ‘S” (smoken!).

Now down to brass spheres… As in most stories that I read or write, I watched this work on the cinema screen in my head & as each scene became more intense and steamy…it became evident to me as it progressed and I could not ignore the equally intense emotion and love that was prevalent; accompanying the desirous thoughts that pulsed thru him as he lay there watching her sleep. Testing and proving his love by suppressing that intense desire to act! Choosing instead to defer his lustful desire and not rear her from her restful slumber. After all, he knew his reward for this restraint would be worth it!

KWP keep on turning

ha - not sure who Nelly is - but mind she watch out for you - hehehe - thanks for reading my friend XXX

[Wrenlane]

LOL...just a short line of dialog used in more than one old western movies usually when a some old codger either riding a horse or driving a wagon would yell out 'Whoa Nelly' especially when perception of upcoming danger i.e. a cliff or a bridge out. Nonetheless your welcome!

[KWP]

As you know the lover sleeping next to you gives many words of love to share when there is true deep love as I feel you have expressed here. Beautiful work young lady. So soft and loving and the to not wake, calls out to me as my own sweet love has done so often, sleeping next to me as I hunger for a close touch.

'we shall dine together - on cornucopia delicacies - of devoted reverence.'

You've certainly enhanced your imagery and, cleverly, with both elegance and fire.

You move mountains with the mind, create pictures with words and by the end you leave the canvas as near pure as graffitti can be, missus. Brilliant phrasing, sensational graphics and a passion of phrases few could rival. :)

[KWP]

Hey beautiful - always look forward to your visits cos I know I will leave shining a little bit brighter :) Thank you for that X

[emmajoy]

My absolute pleasure, and, every word truer than true. Have a wonderful weekend!

If that was your intended goal, then my dear successfully surpassed your objective.

By definition you have reached this latest achievement.

intention, intent, purpose, design, aim, end, object, objective, goal mean what one intends to accomplish or attain. intention implies little more than what one has in mind to do or bring about . intent suggests clearer formulation or greater deliberateness . purpose suggests a more settled determination . design implies a more carefully calculated plan . aim adds to these implications of effort directed toward attaining or accomplishing . end stresses the intended effect of action often in distinction or contrast to the action or means as such . object may equal end but more often applies to a more individually determined wish or need . objective implies something tangible and immediately attainable . goal suggests something attained only by prolonged effort and hardship .

Your words are the emotive conveyor of your passionate feelings. Your lines guide the reader through the sensual perceptions of your love and devotion. You create a Cinerama in which you recount to the reader the exquisite details of that sensually intense experience.

Thank you for allowing me the blessing reading and reviewing your beautiful poem. Thank you for sharing yourself with us.

[KWP]

Hey Mary - and thank you for giving me a long thought to take away with me. What a blessing you are.

Much love X

[Mary Swingler]

You are most welcome and deserving.
