Sensuality

Oh sensuality, you Siren of irresistible bodily pleasures That Enchant the hearts of humans with promises of Untold gratification While Leaving their souls craving for a caress Of divinity’s bliss, Why don’t you, Cease for a moment, your insatiable Carnal desires For To liberate Man from the chains of Errant appetites Thus Allowing him, the delights of the enlightened spirit, For once to enjoy? © Demetrios Trifiatis 15 OCTOBER 2014

Thank you my friend, Harry, for your kind visit and comment! Sometimes, I have to write differently so someone may read what I write! Ha-ha!

Many seek the spiritual through the physical and are left wanting. I wonder if it is the spirit or the body that craves physical union. I enjoyed this piece Demetrios.

Well, my friend I think you know the answer. However, with the union of body and spirit there is an inter-independence of the two therefore one should not be indifferent of the needs of the other but we must keep a balance and give to each what it needs at the time it needs it and at the degree it should be! Thank you for visiting and commenting, dear Richard.

I agree with Dr Upma...It never ceases...At least not for some! ;) Lovely write....the enlightened spirits heightens the sensual mind...Or am I mistaken, my dear poet?

Errant appetites...that's what got us in this mess...the original sin. Yes, my dear poet. You have set me right. Thank you! :) I also agree with Dr Trifiatis!~!~!

Yes, it is good to agree with Dr. Upma, for you agree with me when I say "Why don’t you, Cease for a moment, your insatiable Carnal desires.." The priority is the enlightened spirit that certainly , as you say, heightens the sensual mind but the new sensuality is now guided away from its "errant appetites!" Thank you Eileen for visiting and graciously commenting in such a unique way!

Yes, Dr. Upma, it is an endless war between mind and matter and unless we come to a harmonious coexistence of the two, Man will suffer! Thank you so much for your kind visit and comment! I cherish it!
