Concerto

Concerto

Romance me to the edge of moonlight

play me like a an old love song

 waltz my interlude of emotions

strum my heart strings 

but don't string me along

Sonatas fill desires soft

your lips whisper in gentle blows

like my maestro tend my needs

 set the music sheets a glow

Orchestrate my movements

my chords, yours to posses

play with all my gentle notes

my cymbals tremble I must confess

Make me sing crescendo's

loud like a trumpets scream

feel the tremors of the chords

a prelude to a dream

play accelerando' now

the music picks up speed

perhaps the last cadenza

will fulfill my aching need...

Masterpiece is a term that should be used with care, but I do believe you've penned a masterpiece here Rosebud...I LOVE poetry that equates music with lovemaking, especially classical, where strings are involved, and you've certainly pulled all the right strings of this reader...this poem takes the metaphor into incredible depths of romance and sensuality...I love this one :)

[shallimarRose]

:) thank you Steve... and thank you for the lovely gift.. huggs, Rose

[kublakhan27]

"strum my heart strings but don't string me along" great play on words here. Love the musical theme running throughout your poem, Rose. Sensual and seductive....wonderufl. Lydi**

[shallimarRose]

Thank you Lydi for stopping to read.. The pan flute playing unchained melody is one of my favorites and is my profile music on another site.. I may use it here as well. I actually thought of this theme while reading here last night but I cant remember whose poem inspired it.. It may well have been yours or perhaps Robbie.. Ill have to back track lol.. xo Rose

OMG Rose that is so sexy, beautiful and so sensual. From the rr's already it is clear that all the WC boys will blow a trumpet over this one.

[shallimarRose]
