A Single Red Rose

Dreaming of Him.....

Lulled into peaceful dreams
Lightly wafting loves sweet schemes
As a feather flits upon silken breeze
Passion's flight, he owns the keys

The Kiss........

Lips melded in desire
lighting hearts and souls on fire
fully ripe, and velvet to touch
receives the love she wants so much

Love Gives

He wants to take her there
with passions strong and love so fair
Abandoned now to his embraces
Satiated secret places

Love Awakens

Before the dawn of first sunlight
Fearing so, her lover's flight
Upon her pillow.. one special red rose
To remind her of the love she knows

Cheryl,, Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@

Well,Linda I'm honored to receive your welcome and advice/ orientation. I like to read and. Comment on others as well. Reading poems is a delight as much as writing a poem. I've posted here years ago and forgotten this site until I googled my poems under my previous name Koko Koomoa. I didn't get any comments ever back then. I had to begin a new account. Can't remember my email then or password. I look forward to reading your Poetry too. ALOHA, Cheryl or Koko
