Beneath the shade of the sheltering tree
I find more delight than anywhere else in the world
And am amazed that you could have such delicious
Power over my senses, which consume me

Beneath the shade of the sheltering tree
You would not see anything but passion
In my eyes, desire on my lips, and soft recline
Until agreeable pleasures become us both

Beneath the shade of the sheltering tree
I would compose so soft a measure and trace
'Bout your flesh with a kiss, sweet poetry
when moistened you could not bear the delight

Beneath the shade of the sheltering tree
It is resolved to be, in truth, only a fantasy
Unless fate be so cruel to reveal her confession:
You've less a desire to fulfill me

once again, i'm in admiration of your work, and I'd very much appreciate critiques on my latest poem.

How I love shade trees
and they obviously bring out
the best in you.
A lovely theme
and so well expressed

"Unless fate be so cruel..."

Oh man, then do NOT leave it all up to "fate" ... go to her ... run don't walk ... now ... hurry hurry hurry ... before she goes ... POOF!

Sorry ... I got all caught up in this whole thing ... I am just a romantic at heart ... and your heart is really pouring it out for this dear Lady that you write about and I wish you much luck with her.

As I stated before ... go man go! *wink*

always seeking joy, adventure and romance and wishing you find the same
