Notes About The Poem

Dare I Say

Dare I say
   you awaken
      the b e a s t
         in me, and how!

Your b e g u i l i n g charm
   tempts me to
      madness!
         The warmth...

your smile
   could t h a w out
      iciest
         of hearts; it did mine!

The f i r e in your eyes does
   glow...
      brighter than the sun!

               (Yalto)
