Enticing Sweet Dreams You Tiptoe

Enticing sweet dreams you tiptoe
Charming passions memories spun
From days of our youth long ago
When quest of love had just begun

When in your heart I'm all alone
Enticing sweet dreams you tiptoe
Blazing desires we've felt and known
Kindled embers of romance glow

Musings endearing you well know
When our engaging souls impart
Enticing sweet dreams you tiptoe
Holding me captive of your heart
	
Oh! how our indulgent hearts woo
Flame of ardent past still aglow
Courting love beholden and true
Enticing sweet dreams you tiptoe

You walk back to the zone of youthful romance, presenting memoriies in such passionate warmth. Within the metric constraint, composing such a sweet poem is not an easy task. But everything is safe in your masterly hold !

i love quaterns. Great repeating line, my friend. I wonder if Constance redid her rules , for I do not recall anything other than haiku or senry was asked for. Maybe I got things backwards!! Glad I saw this!
