Poet Sounds

She purrs low in childish delight,
"Come sweet poet, into this night,"
then the purr becomes a hum
of all foretold, of all to come
"Come sweet poet, into this night,
come and savor woman's delight..."

Then the girl to woman blooms
He, savoring flavors of the room
in which she bends, he her dress to rend
but then she holds her hand outright,
"Come sweet poet, into this night"
as she unbuttons her delights...

Oh, if he's had one, he's had them all
Still, enchantment, she, her stance befalls
‘Neath as shadows linger here,
and so fair, she, with whispered care,
"Come sweet poet, into this night,"
and he thinks, "it's different there..."

She is but only woman born
but when passions come to warm
two become one in united light
then safe is he that believes this night
as shadows linger,
quicksilver fingers,
"Come sweet poet, with your might,
and fill the shadows of this night..."

This is truly beautiful, Elan...
I especially loved the imagery of the young woman coming of age....
it was even sweeter, that you made her a poet.

Oh Elan...so nice to see you here!
This is so teasingly sensual...
a delicate soft summer read.
Enjoyed so much!

The shadow knows how to fill the night with pleasure

Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write.
