A Lover's Dance

To kiss a burning mouth where hunger yearns
And free earthly bonds lovers conceal
To fall into love's arms without concerns
Where touches are tender and senses feel
The needs of time disappear from desires
As the tongues of passion burn and implore
To stoke consuming flames so flesh perspires
In a fiery realm, they both adore
Where tremors linger and sighs never end
When warm lips merge in a passionate kiss
To cross boundaries that love will suspend
And dance as lovers in unyielding bliss

  To dwell far beyond in a world unseen
  And find a sacred dream where souls convene

This is SUPERB, Frederic, with gorgeous phrasing and imagery, and a sensual undertone that trembles throughout ... just adored it! Congratulations on EIGHTH PLACE, and thank you for your patience! SO many incredible entries in this contest ... some I had to cut that did not deserve to be cut.

I envy your ability to write so well of passion. What it must be like "To fall into love's arms without concerns..." Perhaps a refresher course is needed, but for now, a cold shower might help. I'm sure this will do well in the contest, Frederic.

OH...you write passion well, dear. I have missed your work. Life has been hectic for me of late, but this....this is sheer beauty I'm glad I made the time to find.
