soft words uttered in passion's tongue we lovers 'neath loblolly pines chance meeting n'er to repeat but love's feast not forgot soft brown hair with touches of cherry down below shoulders inspiring soft green eyes haunted my soul apple-red lips sensual pout the sky as our shield experimentation; order of the day and into the night our research intensified under darkness' veil dawning of morn found us sated physical abandonment did its part we parted like the strangers that we were we shook hands she walked away I did too in the other direction both carrying memories of an impromptu soirée ~~ "Government is not reason; it is not eloquent. It is force. Like fire, it is a dangerous servant and a fearful master." --George Washington ~~ |

Dear Jerry, see it seemed just one sensuous night with no consequences and yet you have kept the memory as fresh as ever within your mind, as the romantic poem is indeed very vivid and enjoyable. Such moments within nature's embrace are dreamy. You had me googling loblolly pine. Interesting, beautiful tree. Exquisitely rendered. Love, Margherita |

I guess, Lori, I hadn't intended for it to be a love 'em and leave 'em kinda poem, it was meant to be two ships passing in the night. Thank you for stopping by and commenting. ~~ I'd kill for a Nobel Peace Prize. ~~ |
