Blue Velvet Above

Blue velvet
above satin sheets
our bodies between
where flesh doth meet,
Two hearts in love
that madly beat,
passionately drumming
through waves of heat.
Two souls entwined,
mellow and slick,
your love and mine
so heavy and thick;
I kiss the thoughts
going round my head
as I look at you
beside me
in the bed…
such thoughts I have,
such longing for you;
sleep my love,
we're one
not two.

w. james beard, jr.

jwesley, a beautiful poem very sensual.

city where all roads
meet, waiting for you,To the depths of the ocean where all hopes sank,
searching for you," Joy divison

jwesley,
So intimate, and written so well. I will think of this tonight, as I lay alone in that big bed.

Thanks, Kit and Mark...I'll leave it as it is though I was giving it other thought. And Bill, I appreciate your kind words also.

Superb, sensual,( hope I can have that feeling again soon). You make the reader feel very involved in the moment.
