Easiness, of manner, speak,
yawning stretch of slumber reach
feather touch of hand in trace
kissing lips, your whiskered face
damp with welcome morning dew
I have had the best of you--
still, but just a stitch of lace--
tide returning to the beach,
from fathoms' heartless beating beat..
Oh but to feel those fingers dwell.

Pardon of the Lover's Hell,
or Heaven, pouting,
lips in swell,
Desire--starved--ground 'tween my teeth;
take you now, what's left of me.
Pull the rope that rings this bell.
Swallow salt sweet from the sea,

Pacify my lips--this dream--
and wake me not, alone in Hell.
Keep me now, within your keep,
Wake me not from this sweet spell.

Serenity--
Your words are a sweet spell--beautifully penned.

"Wake me not alone in Hell"....Wow
S'en...you wove what my dreams are made of
these days....your graceful pen weaves the
beauty...and the fear of it going
away....Hugs to you my dear friend...love
you girlie~

The first stanza, sensual, romantic, blessed with a superb relationship.
The rest makes me think something happened to change the relationship.  The others don't seem to see that, so I'm wondering if I'm all wet in my thinking.
Can you explain the change in 'feel' to the last half of the piece, or even if I should be sensing a change, please?

Oh wow....(yes, doreen "WOW", LOL)

I want to thank you all, but mostly to VAS? No way are you all "wet"--grin--second stanza? was just the transition of the relationship to unbridled *yep, folks, ya read that right* sexuality...

So...again? HUGS to FORUM? and? (heh heh heh)
hopefully? more to come...

Serenity-
This one goes (yep you're right) straight to my most highly treasured box. And forgive me if I use it to take some inspiration - as the setting is what I planned for my next poem. (I'll get to it right after a cold shower~G~)
