Tender

Rhyming Quatrains and Couplet

    Tender ....

   Tender hands caress my naked body, 

   satin sheets glide between our entwined arms,

   morning changed from bright sunlight to cloudy

   … soft, grey-blue eyes full of your loving charms.

   

   Pulling me closer, I feel your desire ...

   dance me with love, as evening starts so grand.

   These moments with you, I will never tire;

   touch me ~ wantonly with your warm sure hand,

   

   Knowing well what I always want and trust.

   Time becomes a moment for us to share.

   Still love you darling, your full lips of lust;

   losing you to her I could never bear.

   Life is such, that things often need to change.

   By the window … now, you're far out of range.

Not sure where this came from.. But my mind often plays tricks on me and forces pen to paper to fill the page with hidden thoughts and meanings.

[John the Baptist]

A bit of light erotica here, in the form of a Shakespearean sonnet. All seems blissful until stanza three, when we learn the romance is not all that secure, at least in the speaker's eyes. Is the beloved playing the field? Perhaps the last words suggest distance in more ways than one.

Hi John,
I just now saw your wonderful review written two months ago... I have been away for a while due to a broken clavicle and three broken ribs but I am back!!

The poet has laid an enigmatic flow of words here, are they sadness wrapped in losing someone. Or, maybe, having walked away from another person, much desired, perplexed by.. missed. Yet, unsure of one's own feelings. Even your laid words tremble, Lisa, even your memories throb.

Can but sigh for you

[Lisasview]

I sense a deep feeling of loss in this poem. A lover so close yet now gone forever. The imagery is beautiful, the stanzas are sensual. Beautifully written!

A beautiful sonnet of passion and desire. Tastefully penned to allow the reader a veiw but not enough for them to feel they are intruding. Loved this Lisa

Love. Hmmm. It should endure. It shouldn't be like water that slips though one's fingers, leaving only a brief wetness that soon evaporates like the mist. We are created to love. How sad that a lot of times it's become so deformed that all it leaves behind are bitter memories that feel like ashes in the mouth. Yet love can endure and not be marred by betrayal. Sad that more people have given up on this ideal. This is a very intimate piece. Haunting.

[Lisasview]

Thank you so much for reading and reviewing my poem... Yes, love can be difficult with betrayal... but I for one truly believe that love is strong and can work with the right person.

Wow! Sorry to hear that. You are welcome.

[Lisasview]

Yes, this was about a woman who's love left her for another woman...
Lisa

[Sami Khalil]

Sad reality! No worries. Many fish in the sea to be caught. Was not meant to be perhaps. His loss.
Those who do not value true love, lose true value.

[Lisasview]

Oh I agree... I was so young when this betrayal happened...

A truly tender expression of love. Replete with such sensuality. Beautiful in rhyme, meter, flow and lovely imagery. It left such a blissful effect on my senses. Kudos dear Lisa!

[Lisasview]

How are you feeling dear Divya?
Robles left you such an amazing raving on Barren, if you have the time you might like to read my INNOCENCE and read his review...which blew me away!!
Thank you so much,
Lisa

Will read soon, dear Lisa. I'm feeling much better. Thank you so much.

I think your strongest line is “dance me with love”; it paints a picture of an emotion, which is something only poetry can do; otherwise, we might as well be writing prose.
