Notes About The Poem

Eye Power- a Collab With Justin

You possess me with those eyes of pyromania
a tidal wave of temptation thrashing into my need for euphoria
romanticized on appetite for agile reckoning of kiss ravishing, harnessing my hysteria,
plumed with lashes lent from love's wings, curling wet wishing
brows preened sexy mean, fur strip stiring me,
hypnotized by your hot umber rings
I learn how suspense stings
circles of crave unbuckling my brazen brandishing, 
deep set on my desire I'm unraveling for the vixen fire, heart sweating,
born from the brown of beauty's sweetest warmth
eyes that bite and suck the stress
right out of my soul's duress,
for you I go forth...

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

You possess me with those eyes of eagle blue
you use a single glance my hesitancy to unglue
soaring in the sky of my sweetened fantasy
these blue crystal orbs foretell of ecstasy

But first...the hunt...looking for prey - it's true
it's you - the Eagle
brutally brave and fiercely famished
you glide on the wind of my desire
your wings ablaze with fire
your eyes fierce, Oh, how they pierce
again and again
my inner sanctum deep
their hue puts the sky to shame
demanding passion and cravings untame
they bore deep into me
slashing bonds of inhibition free
Our eyes speak
Brown and Blue
Me and You...
in your eyes the need to seize
in mine, the need to please
yours dominate
mine capitulate
yours subjugate
mine consummate,
your eyes speak...
mine respond...Bonded, we belong
Eagle and Dove
poetry love
Our eyes speak...

A Collaboration Made From The Quills Of Justin & Eileen

Two of my favorite poets collabing...I'm in for a treat! ...reading.... Ah gee, where do I begin. Fascinating unity with the strength of passion...I love this: ""in your eyes the need to seize in mine, the need to please" Eagle and Dove personified by some beautiful, clever people. I am a big fan of you both. Love you guys! Always, Laura

Thank you, Laura, for this kind sweet comment. I'm touched by your gracious words. I've always seen Justin as an Eagle...flying high...flying free...There is a strength to his heart that I admire. I'm just pleased that he accepted to collab with me. I find his words...fascinating. :) I appreciate your visit, dear. Hugs

Thank you, Nadiya. Poetry is all about living above and beyond the here and now and seeing ideal beauty. This has a touch of that in it. I love having Justin's name on my page as a co-author. :) I have collaborated with several here on the Soup. Very satisfying experience, indeed.

A dream come true....the eagle and the dove fly in harmony on wings of passion and desire. This works excellently in free verse....no ties or strings to inhibit free expression. Well done to both of you, Justin and Eileen, you compliment each other effortlessly; no dips in the graph...just a continuous upward curve. This is going into my favs! // paul

Paul...I was so thrilled when you chose to follow my lead and write about something passionate. That piece I something I will always treasure! :) I love dwelling on this theme. It's the lens through which I view life. I loved our collaboration....in rhyme. Justin and I free fell on this one. I love his ability to express himself with no fear of what people think. His language is very...raw and real. No euphemisms. I'm drawn to his work and to him as a person. I've found him to be a very kind and compassionate person as well. I do wish him every good thing in life....He deserves to have that larger than life quality living. Thanks for the visit, my dear. I can always open up to you. :) You are so kind and good to me. I look forward to writing again with you. Hugs

Wow, thank you, Richard. You gave me a title I will always treasure. Justin does well in the passion domain as well. :) I'm just a little peeved because someone rated this a 6.40....I know it's not you, but it does have me a little upset. Oh well....the opinions that matter...are here to make me happy. Yours a precious vote of confidence, Richard. Hugs

A powerful image contrast between the eagle and the dove -- I saw both fly with grace and wonder upon the wind -- the eagle soaring and diving, the dove dancing and darting . . . such were your words upon my heart! 7

David...I'm glad you enjoyed the imagery here. I've given Justin the title Eagle quite some time ago...Eagle and Gladiator....somehow these two titles just suit my image of him so well. There is a rawness and strength in his writes...He isn't afraid to pull out all the stops and let his inner thoughts ooze on the page. I admire that. I chose to be a dove for this piece....I'm not always dove like. There is a fierceness in my soul that I often have to keep subdued. It's sad....but that is life. Thanks for the visit. You know every one is precious.

We both love to write of passion, my dear poet. Passion and romance are wondrous themes. I was really hoping you would read and comment on the poem before this one. The one of the REAL Valentine story...Scars of Love. Please promise me you will read that and give me your input. I'm very anxious to know your thoughts. You know your opinion of me and my work are precious to my heart. Kindly, take the time to read it. I would be grateful.
