Afterglow (Monchielle, Adult)

You lay there next to me,
my lady of the lake.
Your sweat is still steaming.
I lay here bright awake,
your smile say you're dreaming.

You lay there next to me,
my goddess of the sea.
Your breath still abated.
I can but guarantee
your dreams are x-rated.

You lay there next to me,
my princess of the blue.
Your heart is still pounding.
I want to say to you,
you're simply astounding.

You lay there next to me,
my mermaid of the deep.
Your afterglow lingers.
I cherish while you sleep
your curves with my fingers.

Author notes

To me, nothing is more arousing than the second foreplay after the first act of love is completed, when I can admire the sleeping beauty next to me, and I know that she is waiting to be awaken by a kiss of her prince of her dreams...

This poem is written in a version of the Monchielle form, it follows the normal rules, but also rhymes lines two and four.

    A piece to cherish!

    Hi! I remember the couple of time I wrote a Monchielle, its never been easy, but the flow here is perfect and effortless - flow and rhyme. My favourite line (and that made me grin!) - "your dreams are x-rated!" lol!!! All in all, a great piece that one can actually visualise the moments of the happening.

    Good luck in the contest!

    Love and light,
    Lencio

      Thank you!

      Well, I don't think writing in this style is easy, but not harder than other styles, like Lento. Now THAT is hard! I like that line too, took me a while to find the right words. The last stanza also caused me some problems, but a single rhyme couplet like lingers and fingers, simply had to be used... And, since I can not add pictures anymore (no gold membership), I have to paint the pictures with words instead.

      Thanks for the comment, and the applause, my friend!

      Thank you

      for hosting this contest. I decided to wait till it was over to reply to your comment, to maintain the secret identity of the author. I'm ofcourse sad for not winning anything, but I am glad you liked it. Ah, well... can't win 'em all. Jim
