Des Nuits D'Amour

A fine tablecloth, Lenox china, sterling dinner ware. Tall, elegant candles in shiny golden candelabras. Un chantes, d' amour fill the starry night that I can smell in your heavenly hair. The songs of Piaf and Aznavour soften me, caught in this love-lair. Massages and sultry kisses. A sink full of unwashed dishes. It's time we dance, mon trevor! Blow out the candles and close the doors! So that, we can, in sweet silence, become one with the stars. Simply, gorgeous you and I! In overwhelming desire, to quench our insatiability. Those glorious moments of fulfilling our hearts' utmost desires. July 19, 2019 6:30pm PST

Panagiota, Your poem, like your name, sings like a lovely song. A decadent feast for two hearts. I like Edith, but I don't know of Charles. He sings 'She' very well. -Richard

Thanks on all count. Listen to Charles Aznavour. Piaf's life story is touchingly tragic. Sings a lovely song...wonderful comment.... Some day may write a poem about my French friends in SF. Magnifique! Panagiota

"a sink full of unwashed dishes" brought me to a screeching halt and I thought, "She is talking about me!" but there are so many things to have fun with and dishes are not included. I think the dishes gave this poem a true sense of reality for this is what we do. Give up the humdrum for this kind of moment. Nicely done!
