Primitive Innocence


In response...
Ever mingling in the waters of an unconscious thought
Just below the surface graze of fingers aching to explore
Molten bubbling to explode the seas of intimate magma
Teases the taste of your kisses from the corner creases
To the slightly parted center of these dreams

Compelled to cleansing sacraments of fire and water
Devouring passion that cannot be stopped or held at bay
Drawing closer in frenzy of feelings too grand in their waves
Drowning and choking in the gasps that fill such urgent lungs
Enough to plunge another long and drowning drink

The world disappears into the aura of an all consuming well
We blend in a liquid present, exchanging gift after gift
To love without hesitation or inhibition
Until trembling marvel succumbs in a velvet embrace

Panting and purring
We are tamed

I dont believe for a moment you are tamed

Can I as a special request, ask you to take an everyday thing and sing to it as you have sung these words

The emotion in your words the capture makes me curious of yourself

your words are very expressive; (I found myself holding my breath on some of this!)  Enjoyed; I'd also like to see you Dave's challenge.

    In the midst of winter..
I found there lives within me,
    an invincible summer.

Really, what can I say, except this was just about as close to ectasy as I think one can write!

Wow, I don't think that there is anything that you cannot write about that does not carry your passion and fury. You write with the utmost excellence Katleen.

There is nothing tame about these lines, or
the feeling conveyed by you, the artist who
paints such a passionate painting.

Well done K.
