Two naked bodies lying face to face Conversing silently locked eye to eye He gently pulls away from her embrace His loving touch exudes her ardent sigh The rhythm of the moment had begun Entangling arms and legs the stillness breaks Like dancers moving gracefully as one They share hot burning fires of give and take As rapture comes she shudders in his arms His perspiration falls like summer rain Encore performance rings a new alarm With tender kisses he assures no shame The glowing coals are banked for warmth at night Slow burning flame will rise with morning light by Daniel turner

This beautiful sonnet is a 'sensual tango', your words finely crafted with passion's care of the sheer bliss between two. A wondrous poem engaging all senses, a true pleasure to 'experience' such 'art'.:-) bouquets of blessings, lynn

Thank you, Tom. Not having a lover, it is difficult for me to tap into those feelings without also bringing up bittersweet memories.

Daniel, such a beautiful Sonnet and yes, sensual, but in an elegant and moving way. I think yours will do very well in this contest and best wishes for that. I loved Mystic Rose's comment too! 7+Fav, Sandra
