As sun goes down on this November day, and evening chill of autumn makes its way, a frost now settles over quaint chalet, as couple seeks their warmth in love’s portray. As in the fireplace crackling flame ablaze, and on the floor in front a fur rug lays; upon the rug into their eyes they gaze as lovers seek their passions now to raise. Across their flesh the shadows from flames dance; their tangled torsos seemingly in trance and tightly clinging while they share romance, as hearts are beating faster flames enhance. With heavy breathing bodies seek to sow; they quake together reaching love’s plateau. Then clinging tightly stemming now the flow there on the rug in autumn’s afterglow.

Beautiful, beautiful, so beautiful and as always, your pen writes in the language of kings through a naturally flowing ink.

Where'd my shy-ish friend go, have you seen him? Wherever he is, it's hot, hot, hot but in a romantic, sensual way - nothing lusty but feeling barren in this write. Lovely, lovely is how it was told and how it was to hold. Well done and hello to you, the not shy one. Poetry hugs ... CayCay

I only tease with you because I know you're the same person I've always enjoyed. Re-reading my comments, I have no idea what I meant by 'barren' and wonder what I meant to write? We will never know!

Hi CayCay, thank you for your comments. I’m still the same person I always was. I was reluctant to post this because I thought maybe it was a little too “hot.” I appreciate you and your thoughts. John

Soft, sensual and simply breathtaking. A tender moment captured between two, as they are wishing to become one. This is so beautiful and romantic. :) Brandy

Thank you, Brandy. The temperatures were rising in front of this fire, and I'm guessing she was probably blushing. ;) All my best. John

Filled with love and oh so warm John and I don't mean the fireplace. This was a wonderful sensual poem of love and desire in the Autumn months. Nicely done my friend.
