Lusting For Love

Lust has such a bad press

          one of the seven deadly sins

                    of course people die in bed

                             but they may as well be happy

                                       when it is indeed the grim reaper

                                                who is greedy and gluttonous 


                    L Lush divine coupling

                    U Underwear on the floor

                    S Senses on naked skin

                    H Heaven and pleasure


                                                  yearning for joyful release

                                        desire and sexual yearning

                              passion coveting and craving

                    to be totally one with an other

          petite mort rebirth of devotion

culmination of living and Love


                                      L Lavender fragrance
                             
                                      O Olives’s tender juice

                                      V Void of conception

                                      E Engulfing sweet fire


foreplay and imagination

          creative positioning

                    climax crescendo

                               an altar of union

                                         satisfied longing

                                                   culmination of life


H Hailed be our fun

Y Yielding restraint

P Piety discarded

O Ovations unfold

C Crisp tenderness

R Rivulets of flow

I  Indigo Kama Sutra

S Sex at its best

Y Yardstick coupling


you hypocritical purveyors of sin

          heretic lowbrow Philistine oafs

                              minds loin clothed in denial

                                       cross eyed spoil sports 

                                                 probably don’t get enough

                                                         and envy my rapture

I enjoyed how you did this on the side of lust. Of course it's the better sex. It's free of all the things that go along with committment. Only problem is that it can't last, so I guess you just move on to new partners. Great messages in the acrostics too.

Thanks for your entry Kin, it was truly unique, maybe even a little over the top with the acrostics but all in all great fun. Dave
