breaths heard

Missing image
seeking comfort
                  within those moments
where eyes
         meet
             breaths
                     heard
                           in a moment
                                        of passion
where love finds those midnight eyes
        conversations touch in corners
                                         laughter met
and enchantment
                 finds velvet endings
                                        bright in that promise
drifting past that completion
                                    falling within September
where one listens to the
                        warmth
and tastes the romance
                     of a lifetime.

    Oh My, this is exquisite! The form and structure are fantastic and the content...well, what can be said about love. The pic you chose is a great compliment to this. Great job!

    not sure how to interpret the line indentations, but i suppose it adds something to the way the poem reads.

    the feeling of it this feels a lot like other romantic/love poems. the one line i really did like, however, was this one:

    conversations touch in corners

    this unique wording created quite the appropriate image for the poem.

    don't have any thoughts on how to improve it.

    love the picture though. the woman looks kind of sinister, but in a fanciful erotic sort of way.

    Hmmm...I like this, but not as well as I'd like to. The opening is nice...but...

    seeking comfort
    within those moments
    where eyes
    meet
    breaths
    heard
    in a moment
    of passion

    I'd change the second 'moment' to something else as it's too close to the first 'moment' you have already mentioned. I think something like snapshot, or another word to mean moment would be better. Describe it...perhaps 'heartbeats' of passion? The 'h' of heart would echo the 'heard' and the 'b' of beat would echo the 'breaths'. I dunno...but moment just didn't seem to cut it right with me. All in all this is just a suggestion and you can reject it as such and I won't be offended. I do love this piece though, it's very visual, and tactile. I love poems that don't just speak, but they show you, make you feel within as well as without! HUGS, Well penned my friend. Dari xxx

    Intamacy can be found on so many different levels, other then the obvious. "enchantment finds velvet endings". Truly a beautiful write full of sentiment. I wish I had found your work earlier.

    Out of all the romantic poems that I have been reading this one actually made since all the way through. It reminds me of me and my husband and how we are together. It is a very intimate moment that only two can share with one another. This poem is very well written.

    That embrace, it felt so wonderful
    the way he held her
    the way her body felt so close to his,
    her mind a blur of thoughts, emotions, images,
    she just doesn't know...
    He awaits their next embrace

    Sorry! That just kinda hit me as I was staring at the image. I agree with Cheryl, your poetry definitely has great form. The words just flow across a page like thick, warm, sweet honey. Always a delight to read! Thank you for the pleasure!

    What I like about your poetry, is your form. Very unique. But you know that, I have said it every time. So reminiscent of Rod McKuen. It is so easy for me to see that is where you get your influence, but that is only because I, too, am a lover of Rod.
    This poem is no exception, nicely done.
