Sweet Meadow Reverse Poem

The heat of your lips burns through my skin The breaths hot and fast, as deep you are within Moisture trickles between my breasts my arms enfold you tight To be with you in your dreams, to be with you through the night. The warmth of the flame licking high in the fire grate The fallen wine glasses, this was our fate Your fingertips explore, the softness down below In contrast to this I feel the hardness of you grow. Your eyes the colour of emeralds, close as we kiss The tenderest of touches, out lips never miss To feel the joy and after glow to feel we are as one My heart, my love, my life, I pray this feeling never gone. In the meadow sweet the dragon flies flit by The stream tinkles past, the buttercups seem to sigh Two hands are holding, fingers that play The sun is shining on this our perfect day. No one near as lips meet in unwedded bliss No one censures as true lovers kiss. If this is the last breath on this mortal earth Then let it be a day that makes a lifetime worth. Never to see the pain of another goodbye When true lovers meet, let not the tears cry The breath of life may go, but the spirit lives forever on As the spirits are entwined true lovers will be one. © 26/06/2013 Contest entry

this is REALLY REALLY GOOD, Mandy. One of the absolute best I've seen in this contest. One thing. I hope I am wrong about this. But didn't he say it had to be kept at 20 lines? Double check that and take out a stanza if you have to . I want to see this on the winners' list.
