Flame

Words whispered in the ear
secrets only both can hear.

A caress brings passionate fire
igniting the flames of desire.

One look into loving eyes
where nothing is disguised.

Love shines as the light
as day turns to night.

It's in the heart and soul
no matter where they go.

Bound together by the flame
they call each others name.

Hon, the sense of love is very strong throughout your poem. It truly is a magic that dwells "in the heart and soul." You set the romance aflame in your first verse, describing lovers sharing secrets. A beautiful love poem, Phyl ! Hugs, Carolyn
