`perhaps~

...perhaps, it was a pause

     yet, it felt as though an eternity

   an explosive quiver in the moment

       sending shivers up my spine

 the intensity of our

   moonlit raptur'd intentions

 quiet sentiments

         adorning me in silken scarves 

 we danc'd upon each other's soul

   a slow and steady waltzing of the heart

 our spaces filled

       of sparkling champagne kisses

            & burgundy night's ardor'd desires

 impulses of two connected 

      whimsy'd forbidden forces

  spirited play of lovers vaulted us

            to another essence of time

 those were the days of seductive

               surrender'd secret interludes

   mirror'd in unearthing of abandon'd 

                      affection's sentiments

  we breathe in our darkly promis'd persuasion 

                     til the judgement day call'd

Judgement the taste of dirt sweet soil old vine right between maidens toes white oak cask char only showing on the inside tannins makin her breath heavy, her voice rolling with the ocean of promiscuity promises pierce her tongue. Perhaps.......

[Frieda P]

Perhaps she calls it something other....

[Lydia Shutter]

When it is not meant to be, judgement day looms over everything....and it does come to call. Great imagery in this one, Frieda. And I can see your mind went where mine did yesterday. Lydi**

Exactly, like minds and all that jazz, thanks so much Lydi.

[Jack...]

Well you know "Perhaps" is one of my favorite words and now it is used as the title of one of my favorite poems by you.

Goosebumps, sighs, chills up my spine, sighs, butterflies, sighs, smiles, sighs, did I mention sighs? All of which are me right now after having read this beautiful and sensual poetry under a full moon shining through my office window. I hadn't noticed until I got here this morning, but romance is definitely in the air.

Amazing my sweet friend.

[Frieda P]

Ahem, I know....thanks dear poet, you always make my day with your sweet reviews Jack!

Thank you Raymond, jazz'd you enjoyed this one :-)

[Neville]

A true delight to read and wolf down hungrily for the very first time of reading. And then to savour more slowly whilst re-reading each delicately spiced and well stacked word... Yummy
