Notes About The Poem

I Blaze In Red

I blaze in red
Inside your head
I scorch your bed
In passion spread

I come to taste
With thoughts unchaste
No time for haste
Defense? Laid waste

I come to seize
With ways to please
But first I tease
A sultry breeze

I come to light
the darkest night
and give delight
with lover's bite

I SEE
I Conquer
I...COME

http://www.poetrysoup.com/poem/the_warrior_princess_487921 Have a taste of the Warrior Princess, Paul. You'll like her. Yes....Love assault. There is no other way. Knock the sense out of man and then have you way with him. ;) Your post is a delight to my eyes...I will let you live to tell the tale of our encounter.

Thing is....Daddy is a poet as well, and he often asks about the site, but....I can't let him join. Where he to read my sensual writes....I'd be in for it. I do love him to bits and pieces. He is not just a pastor, but also an educator. He has his doctorate degree in education, his MA in theology. :) I'm taking him to class to meet my students tomorrow. He once came and gave a lecture on sexuality to them. I wish you could meet him. He's the best... :)

;) Oh dear...better be a la Eileen. My dad would NOT approve! He is a pastor, dear. Poor sweet daddy dearest. I've always been a bit of a rebel. He was after me about....make up, clothes, friendships. I loved to tease the poor dear. Belly dance an inch from his face so he'd frown. At my wedding....I was dancing away and he comes up to me and says..."Um....a little less shaking!" He's visiting me now...the sweetheart. I adore him. So...let's keep this...A la Eileen! ;)

Thanks, Scott. One of my fav poets complimented me on my avatar! This poem was the result! :) I've written a poem entitled, I'm the Warrior Princess. It stemmed from one of my students saying that I reminded him of Xena, the Warrior Princess. Well, this is the continuing story...Thanks for visiting. Hugs

Your words are sublime " I see I conquer I ...come" . I have never known a woman with your talent and passion. It is a brilliant write. I have run out of words to describe the emotions it stirs! Your work is the embodiment of love. Love Shane xxx
