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!

Listen here young lady, you have to stop all this writing about passion and love and noises, and other stuff. It's not good for old folks like myself. It's bad on our hearts. At my age I can only dream of such things. I'll probably die in my sleep. I think my heart stopped the other night.
On the serious side, Bad Bunny is pretty cool, and you used it well.
Your words stirred the pot of passion.
A wonderful write.
Well, now it's off to see the cardiologist.

[Susan]

First off, you get a smile for calling me a 'young lady" :-))) As far as too old?? Nawwww, and dreams can be quite wonderful. I'll explain to your Cardiologist if need be;-)... as far as the love poetry ?? hmmm lol I have an impossible heart ;-) My entire profile page is filled with it.

Yee-doggies, Susan 🌻
You really took Bad Bunny's form and made it sing and dance with warmth and sweet sensuality, spot-on rhymes, excellent imagery, and perfect counts, all in powerful scintillation to the senses … I know he's gonna love it, too, just as I do.
Isn't his Stepladder form a wonderful challenge and loads of fun to compose in. It's the most original and entertaining form I've come across in a long time, and it's contemporary to the hilt … what a picture choice, too, to set the ohhh-so tantalizing mood. ; )

Ya really done super good, Lady Poet … a big HUG to You! ⁓ Richard 🍃

[Susan]

Aw thank you Richard for this awesome review. As always, much appreciated. THANK YOU for introducing me to this form...it is a challenging form, but wort the effort. The slightly naughty theme was just for fun. :-) Thanks again ( what else ya got for me to try)

[jacob erin-cilberto]

not a big "form" fan...but i like this one...the way it was put together created a nice momentum....
and it is sensual without being blatant...it suggests...
and we feel it.
nicely done, Susan,
