Waking up from last night's sin
Gently rising, not to disturb
Holding on to every word
Gracious woman full of wonder
I dare not breech your slumber
Watching tentatively, your perfect form
Eyes gazing, can never be torn
Blond hair, blue eyes
Heart jeering, joyful sighs
Rosy cheeks, button nose
Long legs, evaporating woes
I crawled back into bed just so we could touch
Holding back is just too much
Gentle caressing, passion true
Finally awaken, knowing all I need is you
Author notes
This poem takes place the morning after a night of love making has taken place. When the sun is just rising, illuminating the charaters' lover.
I tried the rhyming on this. Its not my usual style, but I hope you like it.

Wonderful detail!
I like the overall feel of this piece, Travis. It rhymes well and I think that goes with love poems
I feel you have captured something here that many lovers try to do: Get out of bed without waking their partner. Chivalry is not dead here! (Notice I said lovers and not 'old married folk' ;D )
I think the imagery is well done, too. The description of the lady is vivid and detailed without being too much so. Sensual not erotic.
I also like the second line in the first stanza a lot:
"Waking up from last night's sin"
Obviously, these people aren't really supposed to be waking up to each other in the first place! Maybe married...but, not to each other. At any rate, There is a little pang of guilt hidden here that is refreshing.
Well done!
