Picture by Jim Warren

* * *

To the bedroom is where you lead me
The smell of incense fills the room
With the sensual candlelight
I cannot help but swoon

You temp and tantalize me
As you lay me on the bed
You know what I am thinking
For my mind is easily read

Fan the flames of my desire
Hold your body close to me
Let this moment last forever
So lost in love are we

On a bed of silk and satin
I'll surrender to your charms
And in the early hours of morning
I'll lay awake here in your arms

I am in motion
I am blue
Love is an ocean
I'm anchored in you
- Shawn Mullins

pull the satin comfort of sleep
o'er the body you possessed
just moments ago
in perfect synchronicity
like well-oiled gears, we meshed
and you paint the ceiling
with daydreams
in a lasting moment
of forever

(sigh) This is lovely, sweet friend, this made me cry as so many love poems do and you always fill me with hope I may find such a love! (kiss on cheek) God Bless You, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Sue, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,

Sue, this is so beautiful. The picture goes perfectly with it. I visited Jim Warren website and saw this picture. I thought it would be pretty with a poem.

BTW, I've tried to learn how to put the pictures on here like all of you do, but just can't yet. Nancy told me how, but I can't get it to work.
