Seeking the Highlands

Missing image
Gentle caress as she'll undress
placing fingers here and there
Wondrous heat a passionate treat
trickling down skin so bare

Caramel skin and twinkling eyes
a native from the islands
Valleys are wet with no regret
as soft lips seek the highlands

Fingers explore a little more
the flower of sensual sin
A genuine smile thats her style
to lure the tourist in

Drinking the fruit he plays his debut
and showers her with loves oil
With rum kissed lips and curvy hips
on the sands of bliss they'll coil

Author notes

The form called for no syllable count/meter, so I went with a
8/7/8/7 syllable count for each stanza. (just being me, different )

The form is as follows:
“Inside Out Form”

In each stanza lines one and three have a double rhyme
In stanzas two and four they share the same end line rhyme

Line 1 AA (Internal rhymes with end line)
Line 2 B (End line rhymes with line 4 end line)
Line 3 CC (Internal rhymes with end line)
Line 4 B (End line rhymes with line 2 end line)

Line 5 DD (Internal rhymes with end line)
Line 6 E (End line rhymes with line 4 end line)
Line 7 FF (Internal rhymes with end line)
Line 8 E (End line rhymes with line 2 end line)

Line 9 GG (Internal rhymes with end line)
Line 10 H (End line rhymes with line 4 end line)
Line 11 I I (Internal rhymes with end line)
Line 12 H (End line rhymes with line 2 end line)

Line 13 JJ (Internal rhymes with end line)
Line 14 K (End line rhymes with line 4 end line)
Line 15LL (Internal rhymes with end line)
Line 16 K (End line rhymes with line 2 end line)

    Good sensual content makes this poem an interesting read, you paint a lovely word picture. Somehow you have missed the internal rhyme (on lines 5 & 13) which is required in this poetic form. Thanks for your entry.

    WOW I think I need to turn on the air condtioner to cool things down after reading this smoking hot poem of desire! This is a near perfect Triqutrain. The rhymes are spot on and flow effortlessly off the tongue when read out loud, with the exception of the first line of the second qutrain which does not rhyme. I loved it.
    Thank you for entering the contest and sharing your talent.

    A most well done visual trip through Passions lusts, hot flavors and , as usual, an immediate mastery of a new poetic form. I am more than just a little impressed here gal, certainly not a poem any man could ever "recoil" from huh?

    love ya bunches
