Harem Dreams

He lay beside her on their bed of dreams His hands still playing in her raven hair Her body bare and bathed by streaming beams Of moonlight that revealed her glowing, fair He marveled at the curves of breast and thigh The fullness of her form like to her heart He moved in closer and he heard her sigh And wondered how she touched his deepest part When he’d reclined on satin cushions, plush A sultan in a harem made for one She’d belly danced and given him a rush Seductive moves that made him come undone And then she’d fed him oriental sweets His tastes to satisfy with keen delight He lay back as she offered him her treats A vision for his soul as well as sight She rubbed into his form her oil, perfumed His harem girl with each caress did tease Her cherry lips his every fear consumed And every move she made was done to please She gave to him what none had done before Not just her love but essence of her soul Adored and sated, why to ask for more? When she had loved him and had made him whole And now she lay there safely in his arms Cocooned in love and nestled deep within He lay amazed by all her many charms His harem girl and of his soul akin He must have sleep, enraptured in a dream A moistness on his lips bid him awake Caressing hand and whispers, sweet like cream With luscious love she made him dreams forsake Eileen Manassian Ghali

Why if it isn't Mr Richard D Seal in the flesh...as it were! ;) Oh, how I've missed you! I'm glad you like my little dream write, Mr Seal. Harem girl is quite a handful, but she gets her way. Desert Orchid thanks you for your visit. It's been too long in coming. Now...don't tease about the wording! HA!

I was teasing you, Richard. I would like to hear your thoughts on it. Is that better wording? Thank you for your explanation.

I choose to honor both of you with my comment, I'm not choosing an easy way out.

Oh how I love the merger of sexual arousal with spiritual friendship Eileen. She is so benevolent in her beauty, so safe and alive in his need, he, so complete in her confidence and security. This is so lovely hot, and I just get warm visualizing the beautiful scenes, exotic, and full of true love. "Cocooned in love" Damn I like that! "Dreams foresake..." You have that kind of power. I also like the unusual word style. Harem Girl, a sacred pearl, and a FAV. I'm a softy...J.A.B.

If I could rate a comment a seven this would most certainly qualify.

A Middle Eastern flavor, Justin. Exotic, yes. Servitude has its own pleasure and reward at times. You have made my poem even more beautiful than it is with your insightful post. A sacred pearl...how sweet. Glad you faved this one. Good to know you're a softy at heart. That's the best kind.

Great. Thank you for those adjectives. I never like my sensuous writes to be considered lewd or vulgar. There is indeed a fine line. Glad you approved of this one, Tim. Hugs
