Lips taste lingering
as fire grows
expanding trace
charting unknown
as a glowing
blush of red flows

A novel of passion in 20 or less is ALWAYS a good sign.  Very nicely done indeed and very impactful in the phrasing you chose.

Magnus,
this was lip smacking good
BTW thank you so much for your words of praise.
Keth.

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown

OK,  I will do it again...

Grapes rolled 'tween lips
eye's trance
taste of vine's tips
first glance

smiling eyes know

Now this is a moment distilled!  Excellent, Barry.

Magnus darling boy I pronounce you keeper of the nights magic this is utterly perfect the simplicity the elegance and the grace this is written with is perfectly delicious. You are utterly utterly perfect when it comes to insight and wisdom, when you stir into the mix your incredibly gifted pen I know it’s going to be special and  I love it utterly but you knew that didn’t you. Wonderful writing as always.

This has lines that are spun with dreams light into a cloth of wonder, it lays over the soul like a drift of lacy delight. A wonderful truly exceptional piece of writing.

Yes I love it, I love it utterly utterly.


Love and warm stuff
As always
Mushy


Breathe through the heat of our desire
Thy coolness and they balm
Let sense be dumb let flesh retire
Speak through the eathquake wind and fire
Oh
