En sueños

 

I lay in cool lush grass,
Moist with midnight dew,
And looked up at the stars.
They were so close,
I knew I could touch them,
Such was the magic
Of the night.



The lazy wind shared
Gentle secrets,
As it brushed against
My naked flesh,
Making me shiver;
Delight.



Breaths groaned;
Deep and heavy.
My helium mind,
(out of reality),
Flowed freely through
Fluid curves of ecstasy.



You surrounded my body,

With delicious thoughts

Of aching passion,

My soul smiled purity,

As you whispered,

Te amo para siempre.

    My, my, you've really out-done yourself, darling.
    I'm very glad to see this in the contest, as I may never have found it otherwise.
    Your words flow beautifully and create the most delightful images.
    Excellent write.

    -Allura

    P.S.- For those of us that only passed Spanish because our teachers happened to be young, Latino males... could you put the translation of the last line in the Author's Notes?

    Bronze (although deserves Gold!)

    All we can say is, Tim was VERY torn between the top three - the final decision was left up to us! (Thank God, he insisted we remain anonymous!)

    Please refer to the contest page final comments for criteria and final notes.

    He will be creating a new contest page today. Initially, in our final notes, we said the top winners and the hm's would be reserved for the final round...which you are, no matter what. But, Tim had a change of mind and felt that you should also receive a personal invite to the next round as well. (An insider for you top three: the next round is "Erotica" - he is allowing pre-writes for the first half of the contest and the last half reserved for new writes, as he had so many requests for new writes before.

    You will be sent an im once the contest page is up later today.

    Again...CONGRATULATIONS ON A MOST EXCELLENT WRITE!!!

    There is a gentle sensuality, under emphasised but threading its way through every line. I enjoyed the quality of innocence that is provoked by the opening lines about the stars. The the center two verses were almost erotic in the descriptive power helped to stress the importance of love. Over all, I really enjoyed the poem and just wanted to share briefly with you the pleasure it provided. Love, Tom B.

    This is an excellent piece of imagery. The overall link between the natural world and sensuality is very well done and I would support the Spanish in the climax. It seems to me sufficiently simple to be interpreted even by people like me who don't speak the language. Well done.

    This was beautiful, there's just something about this piece, it appeals to the senses, and the words used it was just so wonderfully poetic, the two last lines
    As you whispered,
    Te amo para siempre.
    oh sent shivers down spine, it really did, great write, keep it up, Romanee.

    woowoowoowoo! I love it, I love it, I love it! The background adds quite a nice touch too, I might add. (If you have photoshop, though I suggest putting this background/picture in it and blurring the edges so it doesn't look so column-like........just a suggestion.) =D

    awesome poem though. really. The last line was a kicker.

    i like what you have done here very much, in this sensual and loving poem, although i feel that you have sometimes said too much and that this is not necessary.

    here is a suggestion for a revision, to show you what i mean. (also, in modern poetry there is no need to punctuate at the end of every line, as there is a slight implied break at the end of most lines anyway, depending on the flow of language.)

    I lay in cool lush grass
    Moist with midnight dew
    And looked up at the stars.
    They were so close
    I knew I could touch them.


    The lazy wind shared
    Gentle secrets
    As it brushed against
    My naked flesh
    Making me shiver.


    Breaths groaned
    Deep and heavy.
    My helium mind
    Flowed freely through
    Fluid curves of ecstasy.

    You surrounded my body
    With delicious passion.
    I smiled
    As you whispered
    Te amo para siempre.

    I hope you don't mind my suggestions.

    best wishes in the contest,

    AS LOVELY AS THE STARS SHINING IN YOUR EYES!

    A very well written and well presented soulful, sensual, and spiritual piece that demonstrated how all of us are a part of the cosmic stew especially when we are naked and in the arms of that special someone we lovewho knows our heart and souls often deeper and better than we ourselfs do! Another woderful and beautiful piece from you that I'm HAPPY to leave a Standing O for.
    GOOD LUCK in the contest!
    Peace & Love!

    Oh wow, this was really beautiful. I enjoyed reading it. could you tell me what this means?: Te amo para siempre. I thought that ending with that was very creative. It reminded me of a sensual moment with a sexy man who spoke a different language and I had to guess through his body language...maybe its more of a fantasy, lol. Thanks for entering my contest.
