To be in love with a poet
Is not an easy thing
Try as you might, you will never
Live up to his dream

For the poet isn’t content
With love’s status quo
You please and you tease him
But it’s not enough you know

For living there in his mind
Is a picture of the divine
You know that he longs for her
For it's shown in every line

The woman of perfection
Who is not of this world
With raven tresses of hair
A passion flower unfurled

The poet “sees” this woman
And his senses just take leave
For her love is deep, intense
Her body rivals that of Eve

She is tender and she’s giving
Never asking in return
She waits for him night and day
And for his love she burns

She nurtures his desire
Fulfills his every whim
For she is his possession
Remains faithful just to him

She sees in him embodied
Every single manly trait
Each and every need of his
She’s sure to satiate

Ah…mere mortal woman
Who must compete with this muse
You find that you fall short
And your love’s prone to abuse

For who can dare compare
With a poet’s romantic dream
The siren who sings to him
Who floats on clouds of cream

Poor lover of the poet
Sitting all alone at night
Waiting for him to see you
and your needs to ignite

Love him, my sweet, love him
For in the end...he’s just a man
That silly muse of his dreams
Can’t caress him, but you can

So win him at this love game
Make the fires really burn
Try to enchant his mind
So that for YOU it will yearn

Warn that charming seductress
That muse who tries hard to woo
That you have a jealous heart
And you've made him drink your brew

Your body, your soul, your desires
Bathe him in all of these
Not with words but your hands
Make him to do just what you please

For a poet is just a man
Just a simple man is he
Grant him all he desires
Only then he'll set you free!

Jade

My dear sweet poetess that may be how i imagined the pefect woman before I found PS, it is definitly not the way i picture her now. I have read too many of your brand of firey seduction to ever be satisied with any thing less. Be assured a passionate, intense, seductive woman who knows what she wants and how to show her desire is how i will forever write about my ideal woman. No nymphs floating on clouds of cream for this lad ever again. love Shane xxx Oh a 7 and another Fav.

Yeah I worry more about the poetess then I do the poet. It is the poetess paints a vision impossible to live up to. Ah but the poet how happy he is in the warmth of the woman he loves. I know I am in big trouble for this comment. Oh by the way...A Fav! heeheeheehee!

Oh Maurice...You are funny! Yes...poetess are a hopeless romantic lot as well...at least SOME of us are. I still live in an age where there are damsels in distress and TRUE KNIGHTS OF HONORABLE INTENT who come to save and save and save and love and love and love these damsels to sanity or insanity...as need be. A time when dragons are vanquished and passion is ENDLESS AND ENDLESS AND ENDLESS...and Desire gets her way TIME AND TIME AND TIME again. See? I'm a poetess with her head in the clouds. It will be the death of me. The poet? There is a woman mad for him...and she is the one who gets to TOUCH him...she's the lucky one!!! ;) Hugs

How easy it is to fall in love with our fantasies, dreams and to travel on the wings of imagination! Poetry has this special ability that can overcome taboos and obstacles; it is able to give a twist to a normal everyday life and turn it into something special. Lovers and poets do exist, but alas, there is also a word called reality! Hugs // paul

Paul....a man who knows how to woo with words.....is one to be feared...at least for me. I guess that goes for women as well, but....words are so powerful....and then sometimes...you realize....words...are all they are. Anyway....it's a diversion....this poetry word. Sometimes a nice diversion at other times a sinister one. We live and learn. Hugs to you....Paul
