My hands,
cupped to hold all the tears...
warmed to touch the fruits of
passions of our night.

Your hands,
reaching to grasp, to hold
desire's torch.

Our hands,
entwined in the throes of our
nights.

As the silk of curtains flow,
the sheets of satin caress
skins of tease.

As our hands tremble
and hearts beat as one
while eyes touch eyes
and lips caress.

Spurring the fires,
stirring coals of embers hot...
into the night of late
as hands of time move
slowly around
the room..

Whew....Barry, this is so romantic and sensual....and done with a sense of class. It reminds me of the poetry my Gary sends to me.
Thanks for sharing with us, friend.

Magnus, Who but you, could turn a common extremity such as a hand into a most romantic, steamy love poem.

And this:  "eyes touch eyes"

Oh, my.....

Thanks for sharing your talent with us. Enjoyed.  Thanks, Pat

someone's head resting on my knee
