Expressing Your True Sensuality~

Hi Brilliant Love poets

I was going to do a quote or use lyrics to inspire you, but, I decided to give you the freedom to express your sensuality (not erotica) without my prompts...

Those of you who know me, know that I am not in favor of hard core erotica but my favorite thing is a good sensual love poem. If you do not know the difference, this isn't the contest for you.


There is no limit on lines or form, but if it is lengthy, it should be able to hold my attention
I am partial to great imagery, alliteration and use of your best poetic devices...and of course, it must have emotion because for me, that is most important. When combined, it could be gold...

You may save a spot if you like but please make sure that you post in time You have 4 days....


So, pen on and make me sigh....







Lynda

    I will hold this opportunity in my heart. See what visions paint themselves on the walls and what window I can provide for you to see them.

    May you be blessed with the softest visions of a universe where feelings tender and mighty are danced with.

    Love, Tom B.

    Thank you so much for hosting & for the gold, Lynda. I love Neruda's work; it has inspired many poems I've written. Congratulations to Karamel Kandy, Rich, the HM's & everyone else on their beautiful entries. Be well, Poets & Scribes. Wanda
