first kiss to last forever,
flying dancing candles
burnt to wax,
melting memory of skin
hiding from her
fragrant,
searching
fingers...
black
lace
fantasies
still sighing,
panting
strokes of
yesterday's
climax.
Did you stow away...
stay
behind to
remind me
of her
tremors,
passion fruit
intoxicating
witch hazel eyes,
my soaring
soul forever
scented.
She left her pictures too....
Dreams manifest in such a
measure of delight....
her
smile
stretches as
she feels my
rising star
explode
auroras
deep within
Some memories are forever.
Some thoughts are born to touch...
so deep
so fast
so forever lasting...
as feather's taste in sipping sensual expression...
In the wetness of
sliding skin…
every sense is brought to
magic...
first kiss, last
as
every
move is
motion
driving
focus
even
deeper.
As bursting wave
explodes emancipation,
we are
raised in wave,
alive,
as breath of soul
in quaking
quiver…

High quality of creativity all through but these images only highlight the sensuous remembrance. Strong in flow and I found myself lost in this moment seeing these memories as if they were my own. Blue

yes i love the flow and the depth and ideasof stromng metaphors personfication and such. Your metaphors, similies and such were the most creative. No other poems in this contest had that strong metaphors and such
yet this poem seemed not classic not because of the use of thus meaning the old english but because ofthe flow not a romeo and juliet mellow flow, not a classic peice ofwrite yet this poem wasREALLY GOOD -
Beautiful. Like the picture, this poem is like a dance. Not quite what I'm used to in erotic poetry but still a good write. Thankyou for entering and good luck.

"Some thoughts are born to touch...
so deep
so fast
so forever lasting...
as fantasies of craving sensual expression..."
Actually, Rich, I had read this one...yet, I had only congratulated you, shy librarian that I was at the time...
It's beautiful, sensual, evocative, provocative, filled with such yearning as to leave one breathless with awe & splendor...It's a wild & wonderful penning, Rich...Good luck in the contest, my Friend...

I think the form works well in what you're saying and displaying in the sort of solace feel of your piece. I even like what the title can mean with perhaps a deeper quality than perhaps what is shown as if there are two surfaces and not just one, perhaps there's more than two.
A good piece that you have written here.
-
AWESOME!

I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THIS IS BRILLIANT! OMG! I NEARLY HAD AN ORGASM READING THIS! You said so much without being explicit, you said it tastefully and soooooo sensually. I would not change a thing about this piece either. It is perfection in and of itself. I especially liked the ending, where you said
As the bursting wave
explodes
we are
just so born
alive
again
and
again…
That was the "climax" of the piece. That was beautiful, and it touched my soul. Thank you so much for this entry!

beautifully sensuous! Yet I get a hint of lost love here, and that makes it bittersweet, well done, I wouldn't change a thing about this piece
-
awesome!
ooooo more shivers!
verrrrry sensual piece. nice nice nice nice!!!! -
This is excellent writing
and is so exciting
like Viyannarosemarie's orgasm contest
for that is best.
Smoosh Janet
In case that is too cryptic. This is a love contest and you may keep it here but it won't win or place because it is too erotic or you can go to my sister, Viyannarosemarie's, orgasm contest and have a shot. Your choice. -
Awesome.
Wow. I found this amazing, actually, how you managed to say so much, even as you said so little. Vivid, passionate, sensual... it was all of those, and more. Good luck in the contest. -
Verryy well done! Sensual, tasteful; just altogether wonderful! Thank you so much for sharing and for entering in the contest!
-
I knwo that i said erotica dosent stand much chance of winning n my contest but now i stand corrected your descriptions are so vivid you say everything without actually saying anything. At first I was a little put off by your form but once i got reading it all became clear and natural to me. great write.
-
Good job! Diffrent and I liked it, must read again and all.
I like these two lines....
' Some memories are forever.
Some thoughts are born to touch...'
Good luck in my contest!!
Though you did not put luck of the Irish in your authors box.....we shall see

This is great, I really enjoyed the visual you created with the word placement. The flow tantalizing!!
-
Very lovely poem. Very vivid descriptions that really help bring the poem to life. I feel as if I was there. I like how you formatted the poem, it's different but in the end just helped out the sense of feeling to this. Keep up the awesome writes! Good luck in the contest too!
