Gentle On My Mind

When dusk induces lusty eyes to tear, I seek your touch and loving embrace. Your sensual voice I desire to hear whispering soft nothings against my face. The silence of the night consoles me as you lie beside my shivering form. Your skin against mine is apogee with promise of sweet caresses warm. And when the dawn begins to rise I find you still within my reach. You accept my kisses as your prize and your ardent passion I beseech. For all the stars are now aligned, as you lie gentle on my mind.

A beautiful love poem, so tender. I read it 3 times the last time, aloud. This is truly wonderful LAF

Why thank you Svvie. I appreciate you lovely comment. Sometimes poems are better understood when read out loud with inflection and meaning. :)

Gentle alignment and red dawns no doubt.? A zenith of refinement, midst senses of entwinement..I shall whine on no more however Linda-Alice in whom I sense no malice.' At this Point I raise a chalice.!
