Thirst for Love

Unrhymed Unmetered Quatrains w/Envoi

         

   

       

   Thirst for Love

        Fingertips play along his back,

        like tunes on a grand piano.

        Soft, fluid strokes I play

        moving to my tune.

                   ~~~

        Awakening, he turns … 

        his eyes, the colour of stars.

        I move to him quickly;

        naked ~ pressing my body to his.

                   ~~~

        Whispering sweet nothings

        I succumb to him …

        he takes me again and again;

        delighted, I watch him.

                   ~~~

        He leaves,

        without saying goodbye.

        I know he'll be back,

        again and again;

                   ~~~

        for, thirst of love

            continues on....

                   ~~~

I've changed my mind about helping my daughter .. that can wait .. write now I need a cold shower .. seriously tho' as a gentle piece of subtle erotica, this is a delightful ........ Neville, wondering where all the soap went :)

[Lisasview]

Hi Neville,
How did I miss saying thank you for your delightful review..Goodness, a month ago!! I do remember reading your review with a smile on my face...So sorry for the delay in saying thank you
Lisa, just finished eating salmon for dinner....delicious!!

[Neville]

No worries ... I like salmon too .. Neville just finished unpacking his suitcase and having a coffee :)

[Lisasview]

Thank you Neville,
Lisa, going now to practice piano..Chopin

[lightsong]

your sensual poems are like songs one will listen to when feelings of romance and passions hit. even sadness, longing... yearning too. "his eyes, the colour of stars" I love this line it shows passion at the peak. wonderful...

[Lisasview]

Hi there again,
I just read you review on my Red Lips and asked if you had read this new one of mine... and I see you did... great and again left me such a nice review.
Really appreciate that you take the time to do this!💕 Thank you,
Lisa

[lightsong]

You are welcome dear Lisa, your poems are smooth and sweet to read~ wishing You a wonderful day there with no headaches at all :>

[Lisasview]

I woke up one morning and just wrote down this poem.. so, except for a a very few fixes and finding the art work and colour I submitted it.

[Ioana Mihai]

Beautiful, intense, sweet, euphoric, energetic, playful… abandonment in the universe named Love

[Lisasview]

Such a very nice review.
So glad you enjoyed it..
Lisa, now in Spain

[Gee]

Your words transport the reader into this piece then allow them to paint there own scene.
Hot stuff Lisa.
Good morning from cold and damp MK

[Lisasview]

This wonderful way of communicating is so much fun... I love it. Sitting here with a cup of coffee reading reviews and leaving reviews is wonderful. Not sure where this last group of poems is coming from... I believe I have now written 6 seductive poems..Feels like I am on a roll...I wrote one Red Lips..a very different from all the others..Did not realise that when i wrote it is was from a mans perspective... I found out this morning when I got a rather harsh review...
Lisa, also in damp, cold...and rainy weather..

[Gee]

I don't mind the odd negative comment so long as advice is offered off the back of it :)

[Lisasview]

I agree.. I do not mind negative comments if they have constructive criticism attached..
Lisa

[Sami Khalil]

Love awakens the deep thirst and fulfills the deep hunger. Never ending, humans surely come back for more and more. A fab poem full of those human needs.

[Lisasview]

Hi Sami,
So glad you like my poem!! Thank you for reviewing my work.. I really appreciate it.
Lisa

[Sami Khalil]

You are welcome Lisa from Spain.

[John the Baptist]

Pretty hot stuff here. Like all good erotica, there is no vulgarity, only the conjuring of sensuous images. I think, though, that were he a gentleman, he would at least have said goodbye. Then again, maybe I just envy the lucky b*****d.

[Lisasview]

Your review made me laugh out loud.. Yes he was a lucky.....
Glad you were able to conjure sensual images..It means that you got the true essence of my poem.
Thank you so much,
Lisa

[Aluppi Jampur]

A sweet sensual piece here, Lisa.

[Lisasview]

hank you so very much for reading my sensual poem..
I do appreciate it..
Lisa, nighttime in Spain..

[Aluppi Jampur]

Enjoy your evening, Lisa

[R.J Calzonetti (Siniste..]

We had a similar thought it seems, in one of my poems I mentioned something similar to your first stanza. Not saying it's not original, I just thought it was interesting that we shared a similar thought. I'm not into sensual stuff, but I still greatly appreciate this poem. It was put together quite well.

[Lisasview]

Hi there,
I accidentally submitted this poem with out truly finishing it.... Sorry about that.. So I changed the Title to a Thirst for Love.. Would you mind terribly reading it again??
Lisa
I do appreciate all your reviews..

[R.J Calzonetti (SinisterPotatoe)]

When it got to it, it already finished, the only thing that changed was the title. I'm not into sensual poems, but it was well written. My view point on the poem is largely the same, because I read it when it was nearly finished. I enjoyed this work, please continue writing more.

[Lisasview]

You are so sweet to say this.. and honestly sensual poems are not really my thing.. but they are just coming out of me...weird..Lisa

[Lisasview]

I do think it is so wonderful that we shared a similar thought..

[Lisasview]

Would you please send me the name of the poem where we had the same thought?

[R.J Calzonetti (SinisterPotatoe)]

From my poem "Surrender" under the section labeled "Weed".

[Lisasview]

Oh good.. thank you I will look it up..
