Double the Pleasure

A Pleasurable Life The things that bring you pleasure May be experienced one at a time Or they may be combined Into one fantastic time frame To double the pleasure And double the sheer bliss The decadence of eating With the satisfaction of making love A combination bursting with pleasure Warm melted chocolate To be taken in from pleasure spots Savored while the tongue swirls the chocolate before taking it in Giving and receiving pleasure And tasting….richness Whipped cream or a touch of honey Foamed up or drizzled will heighten the pleasure Just a bit…….not too much Makes the sweet….sweeter Feeding body AND soul Double the Delight Double the Pleasure The love of music Blended in with the love Of love making Exhileration carried on notes Moving fast and slow Swelling and receding Pianissimo….to make her melt Slow slow…. Andante...Andante The way to go... Then subito A sudden change of tempo The element of surprise Frozando….no escape...no turning back… Demands of surrender Fronzando giving way to Rinforzando Thundering….again and again A swelling crescendo Burst of sound and rhythm and light Reverberations reaching the inner soul Suspended in time The symphony of two bodies In the throes of surreal delight Forte…forte…forte An then….. Then diminuendo….calmando The labored breathing of love Receding with the waves Al niente Al...Niente Fading to nothing Peace….after Pleasure Double your pleasures For tomorrow comes with no guarantees That your eyes will feast On the celestial stars Making love to the night To the symphony of the universe... So while you can... Double your Pleasure Double your Delight In a double dose of LIFE Eileen Manassian Ghali
