Dark Temptress

Near the lobby in the great room we first make our rendezvous. A breathy trip up to my stateroom and I am at last alone with you. I sense your fragrant muskiness as I tease off your tenuous cover and reveal the lustrous duskiness of your dark body to your lover. As your wrap falls to the floor and in all your glory you disrobe the hungry demon waits no more and I encup your tempting globe. I cannot think what may transpire... Shall I regret today's caprice? But I cannot vanquish my desire and sweet passion will not cease. Deferred until tomorrow all guilt trips and now, oh chocolate truffle... to my lips! February 10, 2013 Inspired by Jon Cavanaugh's "Ode to Chocolate".

Yes! Too bad I didn't have the guts to write it from a female perspective. Think of the possibilities with a candy bar!

Thanks, Andrea. I added a stanza and put it in the new contest, just so it's not exactly the same poem. You're right. It's was a pretty good fit, but even better now, I think.

Ah, but Joyce, are you sure the ending was not just a figure of speech, a metaphor for something else? Perhaps the first part was literal and the last part figurative or perhaps vice versa.....

Thanks, Jon. I had deleted this poem in error and then added it back without giving you credit for the inspiration. I have since corrected that omission. Cheers, Roy
