Take Me ~

Take Me!

Strong hands

softly caress along ...

surround in wanting embrace,

oh-MY!

Commands,

whisp'ring sighs ~ sweet love's song;

'pon every garment ... unlace;

let fly!

Our plans’

hot passions naught prolong.

Quick! Close the door,  just in case …

outcry!

How did you create such rich abandon without abandoning a specific form, Susan? Apart from the passion you have created an extraordinary dance of letters and punctuation. Great writing. Bunny has always inspired.

Aw thank you Em! I always appreciate your reviews! :-)

[emmajoy]

This is hot and sweet. I read it over and over again. Nice job!

[John Alexander McFadyen]

Lovely poetry and to a Bad Bunny formula too! Sensual yet charming.

[Susan 🌺]

Thank you John for reading and for this review! Much appreciated. :-)

As I mentioned, I'm not into "form" poetry, but the part I love is when someone writes according to a form, but that form really doesn't matter one bit becuz the meaning of the words shines far beyond it. That, to me, would be the point in writing to form & you've succeeded here. Your words convey a depth & power of feeling that transcends whatever you were doing technically! *smile* Fondly, Margie

I bet you would be wonderful at any "form" poetry :-) hint hint :-)

[T.S. Ulmus]

Steamy! Good job making something so lustful with such a strict organization. Sometimes the best poetry grows around a strict lattice work. A lot of people write freeform and don't realize the strength that comes with a well-defined form. You expressed a moment and captured it beautifully.

[Susan 🌺]

Beautiful review! and I apologize I missed it!!! Thank you for reading :-)

[David Klay]

This is highly smile worthy. The format assures a pleasant flow. I enjoy the lighthearted topics mixed with truly brilliant writing.

[Susan 🌺]

I am so sorry!!! I missed this review!! Thank you so much :-)

[Paul Bell]

Short and sweet with hidden inuendos running though it, and if you read it in reverse it's just as good.

[Susan 🌺]

[Paul Bell]

[Einstein Noodle]

lovely ... nice bit of humor in closing! "Quick! Close the door, ..." indeed :) pic is also very inspiring of a deeper affection and the added passions within Bad Bunny's form makes for a delightful, fanciful romance ..
