Deepest of passion flowing  through veins thin
soft fingers caressing covered smooth  skin
Tender lips leaving love’s salacious trails
Beds sway  gracefully on two silver  rails

Heartbeats depart on a shining lover’s  train
passion dance melody  they can’t restrain.
Sighs of bliss echoing from smooth car walls
Luscious ride on two rails through lucid falls

Lover's gaze caressing core of two souls
climbing  to the sky on a train that rolls
Sensual sight’s view flying by outside
Two shadows embraced on a swaying ride

Two tickets to a lustful lover’s feast.
Take a trip on the silver sided beast

*sigh* this wonderful poem combines so much I love. It is a sonnet and I love sonnets and it is about love and told with such incredibly sensual romance that flows from your pen with such grace. Can you guess? I love it, of course.  

Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams.

YES!!  You found it right?  This is the other part?  But, those sleeper car beds are not that big you know?  
Swaying and sensual...
...you KNOW I liked!
~hugs, Nancy~

Ah the beauty of love. Something we all strive for and it is wonderful to see the beauty of the emotion depicted so eloquently.

Thank you Dawn....Sonnets are not easy for me.  I struggled a little trying to get it
to have the right meter,  the right rhyme,
the words that made sense...They can be
very challenging....Getting comments that
are nice....make the effort worth it...
thank you...

A very swaying Sonnet..I envy such deliverance...I've never connected one yet with my verse...It is something I will strive to try...as this was really moving!

Sincerely,
Regina
