Our Autumn 🍂

  Our Autumn knows not - of cold snow,

  only such ways warm lovers glow.

  Every shared embracing’s appeal

  ignites a smooth, enthralling feel.

   

  So, cleave your body tight to mine,

  our blood will stir like fevered wine.

  Your parted lips, so softly blessed …

  upon my own, craved hungers fest.

   

  Long yearnings’ tastes then come alive,

  with ache’s deep passions thus derived,

  that each bold sense within us wakes

  'til all resistance hotly breaks.

  

  As we entwine, we're setting free

  sheer writhing's flowing ecstasy.

  With every moaning’s sigh of bliss …

  lovemaking's succulent wet kiss.

  

  Rainbow leaves drift gent’ly a'ground,

  all’s quiet now, save all around

  Nature’s sweet song sings to each soul;

  Our Autumn 🍂 weds two lovers whole.

Happy Saturday, Dear Lisa 🥀

That this rather suggestive verseage has inspired your lovely pen to want to dance upon the page is more gratification than an olde bard could have expected, but surely to enjoy and smile.
I warmly agree … love can make a wondrous difference in most everything, and I thank you ever-so gratefully for loving this fascinatingly luring piece of poetic romance! ⁓ Richard🖌

A most lovely and sensual write! This flows along perfectly, never forced into the confines of the writing style. To write this well in this way is surely an art form

"Perfectly flowing, unforced, lovely, and sensual?"
Oh-MY, Dear Poetess!

What more could a hopeful bard wish than for one as accomplished as You to bless his humble efforts so warmly and inspiringly.

Thank you for your expressions of appreciation and praise to my humble poetic artistry!

With most grateful hugs! ⁓ Richard🖌

Richard - you leave no doubt that Autumn is the place to be. That there is no wine as sweet or enticing as the lips of the one we love and who loves us in return.
Thank you again for a lovely piece - Take care - Dave

Hi there, Dave!

Thanks so much for stopping by to read this rather warming little homage to Autumn romance, and for your nice compliment.
I very much like your analogy of wine, enticing as a lover's sweet lips.

It is always a pleasure to share my humble verses with you, Syr! ⁓ Richard🖌

[Dave]

It's so good to hear from you. Far from it, I don't think of your verses as humble.
Take care - Dave

Thank you, David … back atcha!
