Hi to everyone
It's been some time since I last visited and I must say I am really impressed with all the changes. The quality of what I read here is amazing and it's with a little trepidation that I'm putting my toe back in the water again.
Nothing ventured nothing gained !!!

Destiny

Bright lion caged.
Fierce desire flamed
by nights promise
and sweet Venus gift.
Held in check  
by more than bars.
Confused by her need
for his strength.
Jealous of his power.
Angry at the whip,
but compliant.
Freedom – the punishing reward.
