 Picture by Alan Ayers * * * He came unto me with fire in his eyes and love in his heart. Hints of rose oil drifted around the room and awakened our senses, as shadows danced beyond the flickering candlelight. Beads of passion smouldered beneath the surface of our skin as love became the conductor of our hearts. We welcomed love's first gentle flutterings and succumbed to the sensual awakenings that stirred deep within, as we quenched our thirst for love and indulged in the finest fruits of passion and desire. Our bodies were aglow beside the roaring fire and I surrendered to the warmth of his embrace, and delighted in the tenderness of his touch. We savoured each and every moment as our needs became more urgent and our desires demanded to be fulfilled. His love coarsed throughout my veins as night turned into morning, and in the afterglow of love, he left me.........breathless. * * * "Wine comes in at the mouth and love comes in at the eye. That's all we know for truth before we grow old and die. I lift the glass to my mouth, I look at you and I sigh" I am in motion |

James I always appreciate your comments. CG I am so glad you liked this piece. jwesley As you probably noticed, this was one of very few poems I have written that do not rhyme. I must admit I felt like a fish out of water when I began writing this way but the response has so far been good, so I'll try doing a few more. Thank you so much for your wonderful comment and I'm so glad you liked the picture. Take care.........Sue I am in motion |

Suetant, ... you draw me into you ... is it real? ... or just a fantasy? ... Here on Pips, Here on the imaginal plane, they are the same. Now, if only I could dream you into being ... :------------) |

Hey Jaime Would I disappoint you if I said that this was written purely from imagination? I was so very humbled by your lovely words and I was reminded of one of my favourite quotes : "If I never met him I would have dreamed him into being" Take care........Sue I am in motion |
