I felt the undeniable touch of your eyes
for the very first time and
the endearment of your arms,
but it was the sweet taste of your lips
that overpowered me
and the intoxicating
aroma of desire.

A whisper of a jasmine moon shining
upon the window of my soul
shining brightly;
as I surrendered
upon soft sheets of moonlight,
and a rosette of stars
spiraling out of control
shining upon mountains,
luscious peaks and valleys,
beneath the spell of a jasmine moon.

~Victoria




I was adored once too.
William Shakespeare

Such wordplay in this one, Victoria, and heading the list is . . .
quote:
luscious peaks and valleys,

That just says it all. You captured "the" moment perfectly. Very well written . . .

This is really beautiful!  
Love, like the scent of Jasmine, in the air.  Well, love and snow - if you live in Pittsburgh...

I can smell the Jasmine moon
and it smells as beautiful
as your poem.
