A Blazing Fire

A blazing fire is crackling its refrain as I recall a love, perhaps not sane. Beside this hearth you tenderly caressed my body and we simmered; then we pressed against each other. Heat was our domain! My heart now pulses rhythm with a rain which beats staccato on my window pane. Torrential is the longing in my breast - a blazing fire. The warmth of your embraces soon would wane. You left, but images have seared my brain. . . like you in glow of dancing flames, undressed. I wish with all my soul that I were blessed to have you here again, for I remain a blazing fire

I liked this one as soon as I read it, andrea, (it actually contains very little repetition, perhaps that's why!) you were very shrewd opting for a form that uses subtle repetition! lol sensual, poignant, nice rhyming, and even some internal rhyme too; everything about it read exactly right - congrats on your 1st place win! :)

Hi Andrea: I have already commented on this poem but there was no login for a reply. I am aware with your expertise on poetry styles and I did research on the Villanelle form and I'm sure it was correct with the one exception with. The punchline broke the rhythmn of the form but that was my intention. But thanks for caring.
