My Georgia Peach (Three) (Harrisham Sonnet)

Missing image

My Georgia Peach (Three)(Harrisham Sonnet)

                                    ♥

Lovely and gentle, my mysterious Georgia peach,

yet when making love, as voracious as a wolf, when

taking deer in flight. This her body demands, as each

gasp of ecstasy cries out, from her soul, deep within.

Pulsing flesh starving, as more and more peaks we reach,

gorging ourselves on our lust filled pleasures of sin.

                                     ♥            

Holding each other as if no tomorrow, no yesterday,

gentle caresses we exchange, gliding and touching

every sensitive part of our bodies, as we end our play.

Yielding to quiet thoughts, the pleasures of our loving,

guiding us softly, to sleep. The end of our perfect day,

giving way to darkness, beautiful, silver moon rising.

                                      ♥                                   

The secrets, the mystery, the beauty of her many faces,

eternally imprison me, within her sensuous embraces.

.

    I dont understand the form, but the writing is amazing.

    "The secrets, the mystery, the beauty of her many faces,

    I've read this piece once before actually. The Harrisham sonnet is a very cool form. I also enjoy the veritable orgasm of commas, though you may be missing a few (such as between 'mystery' and 'the' in the first line of the couplet). I often binge on punctuation marks myself. Anyway, I think the final couplet is my favorite. I also like the line "asvoracious as a wolf when taking deer in flight". Thanks for entering.

    This had so much affection in it that it blow me away. I loved its softness and its sensual nature, I felt it had a great ammount of personal sparkle and a brilliant balance between the sexual and the romantic. I loved the line "Holding each other as if no tomorrow, no yesterday," that was really sweet. The poem also read really well which made it even more enjoyable. Great work x

    However, can you explain to me how it related to the quote you chose--"To being an us for once, instead of a them!"? I don't really get it.

      Thank you for your comment. In this series, he would like to capture and hold her as one "To being an us for once" but with all her many faces, she is many "instead of a them". But we all know that it's her many faces that makes her so irresistible to him.

      Perhaps, it is to abstract for others to see, but it makes since to me.

    What I like about this write (and I will attribute
    this to the original form used) is the way it
    glides, each stanza an interplay to tangle the next.
    The voice is sensuous and screams the Poe quote.
