Lin Lane Poet Romanticism

Notes About The Poem

Colourfication

He whispered, "You're here."
My fragrance consorted before me,  
sweet scent of summer lilacs. 
He placed a rose on sheets of platinum silk.
Wildfires of desire in his emerald eyes,
reflected in soft glimmers 
of a voluminous pearl moon.

Seductive smile on my vermillion lips
in chamber lit by amber candles.
No need of their scintillation to see,
I only needed to feel.

Diamonds danced across a dusky sapphire sky
as he breathed erotic sensations on my nape,
slid a strap off the shoulder of my ginger gown.
The pulse of his heart beat against my hand.
My other caressed the charcoal ruff at his temple.
 
Fuchsia blooms fluttered on the trellis window. 
Their aroma faded as I inhaled his balm,
tasted love, savored passion until I was replete.
             
Soft breezes swirled across warm silk sheets.

James Inman March 19, 2016 at 8:42 AM This is a beauty Lin. Such seductive imagery, I lost my place when I was reading it and had to start over. Lin Lane March 21, 2016 at 6:59 AM lol James, having to start over is quite a compliment in itself. Thank you so much. ;)

Timothy Hicks March 16, 2016 at 8:55 PM No malachite eyes? ;) This is elegant Lin, and lot of pretty word choices like "trellis window" and "ginger gown". Your most standout line? "No need of their scintillation I only needed to feel" .... they don't call them mood candles for nothing! (as if you actually need assistance in the dark) ... Lin Lane March 16, 2016 at 10:05 PM Malachite eyes have been used and overrated. Eyes closed are open? The imagination works much better when it feels with hands and heart. Thanks for your visit, Tim.
