conscious submission

Missing image

conscious submission

come to me, make love to my mind
caress my body, touch my soul
let loving hearts be intertwined
release my spirit, take control

caress my body, touch my soul
my wall is down, so please be true

hand in hand our emotions stroll
kiss my thoughts, as they drift to you

let loving hearts be intertwined
two hearts as one, it must be fate
my heart can see no longer blind
I need you dear, please be my mate

release my spirit, take control
spiritual strength, two combined
no greater love can one extol
come to me, make love to my mind

Retourne:

Like so many other French forms, the Retourne is all about repetition. It contains four quatrains (four-line stanzas), and each line has eight syllables. The trick is that the first stanza's second line must also be the second stanza's first line, the first stanza's third line is the third stanza's first, and the first stanza's fourth line is the fourth stanza's first. Retournes do not have to rhyme.

    excellent. submission that opens all gates from body to soul. an openess of the heart that won't deny any intrusion extending invites with passion even into the subconscious levels. this is true love. last stanza says it all: release my spirit, take control
    spiritual strength, two combined
    no greater love can one extol
    come to me, make love to my mind. excellent expressions

    I looove the whole piece, pic, poem, title. It feels like a secret room of the heart. Allan is a lucky guy The magic is really happening here, after all it's from the heart A room in the heart with a view, unobstructed. I have this same intuition and empathy with my partner and it feels totally safe. This form of poetry unknown to me works very beautifully. Two hearts as one in fate this is strong. To me, it's the finger of God touching the hearts. A real pleasure to read you.

    Giving hearts and wandering minds

    It is of true surrender that you speak, that the heart does feel complete this there is no denying as for the mind that is another matter.

    Let the heart lead for the mind will follow, if love is to be the truest gift in this form of complete abandonment.

    I like it, I like it so.

    Wow! This was absolutely amazing!!! Just one problem though... The first line in the second stanza is not the same as the second line in the first stanza. But yet, this poem is absolutely amazing!!!

    Always,
    Cassie (who is FOREVER in your debt!!!!!)

    Since I really shouldn't just quote the whole poem, here's the stanza I liked best:

    "my wall is down, so please be true
    come close to me and make me whole
    kiss my thoughts, as they drift to you
    hand in hand our emotions stroll"

    A beautiful write! I don't know what kind of magic ink must flow from your pen or what sort of goddess must live in your imagination, heart, and soul...but your poetry is always astounding!

    Beautifully done Amera,

     

    and it answers my question of why we relate so well as 'family' in many ways, in that, your emotional makeup concerning love and romance towards men, is virtually identical to mine towards women.

     

    Oh, not exact, to be certain, but most similar.

     

    An interesting revelation.

     

    but, again, nicely done gal :)

     

    very much so

     

    *rose*

     

    Dad
