Passion In a Gondola

Hello my exotic, glorious maiden, By now they all know you are taken. I possessively, poetically, clearly, and eloquently Told them you are promised to me, a sensual, delicately, Known beauty, could not marry a canal walk about, a Wannabe, curling his moustache and swinging his cane, With no title or aristocratical fame, And who is just playing a game. He drinks he smokes, he womanizes, and he is fat His face ruddy red, he belongs in the sewers with rats. Every time I see you mon amour, be it every minute Of every day, my heart goes aflutter, Concerned my romantic words will go asunder. As I helplessly stutter. You push up your corset, and alluringly overflow, My lovely, anymore tightening, you will explode. Your thigh high slits in your dresses tantalize men, And with your matching parasol you look so irresistible, No one in this town matches your looks, not even contestable. Love of my life I love you as you be, my mistress soon to be wife, For the rest of my life. Time drags by so slow, I want a ring on your finger, Then I will whisk you away, to my Chateau, You blow so many kisses, I know they are for me, Your blue-eyed wink, a secret code that we will meet in the Gondola and enjoy our passion, You are breathtakingly beautiful, considered to be quite the catch, We have known from our teens, that we were the perfect match.

Creative, romantic and captivating, Jenny! Those gondola rides have that special something about them. I was in Venice earlier this month (for the 3rd time), and finally went on a gondola (on the insistence of my better half!). By the time the enjoyable ride was over, the tide had come in, and we had to walk about barefooted with shoes in hand! ~ Warm regards & hugs my friend // paul

This beautiful lady who is the cynosure of everybody deserves to be your partner in life. If unworthy men direct their eyes on her and try to woo her, it is not going to work. In the Gondola both will meet and exchange rings. Beautifully romantic dear Jenny !

Now I need a cold shower Jennifer! This passionate encounter and desire is so artfully expressed leaving much to the imagination - always a sign of great writing! And difficult to do. But, you wrote with great skill. Okay, what happens next in the "chateau!" I think you have a series of romance inspired poems set in exotic places! Sending you many blessings dear friend!

Hey Sam, thanks for a wonderful comment. My word ,was so sad to hear that the canals are almost dry with the excessive temperatures in Italy. Saw a painting in a restaurant and that got me going. We have electricity outages and delivery of water sometimes doesn't happen for 2,3,4 days, infrastructure not maintained and old, but our son comes to us to shower and we go to them. Glad you could get to a shower, ha, ha, ha,. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.
