Notes About The Poem

A Few More Hours

A few more hours
the world will count
a new year in 
a new year out

and here am I 
within your arms
I count the time
by all your charms

Our bodies sway
you hold me tight
the candles blaze
On New Year's Night

the fireworks
within your eyes
now scintillate 
along my thighs

we celebrate
the time draws near
that burst of love
to other sphere

the TV lights
dance to and fro
the countdown on
in passion glow

I see your face
bathed in desire
we're almost there
you rock me higher

And then as one
we burst in flame
"The New Year's come"
we both exclaim!!

What better place
for you and me
than in the throes
of ecstasy!!!

You hear me sigh
and sweetly say,
"My New Year's joy
is here to stay.""

Wouldn't this work in the, oh, I forget the name of it, but the Greek Poem Contest of few syllables? It would be quite a contender. A delighting and exciting read ... CayCay
