My Jasmine

Enveloped by your fragrant mist I feel as though I’ve just been kissed My senses now, I must enlist Tempting this hypnotic tryst I’ve not the power to resist Innocent in sultry tones Your ivory beauty now condones Seduction of a heart it owns Held captive, one of many drones To drink of your exotic sigh The tea of an erotic high Arouses such, I must comply Nearing now a manic state I must stop, now it’s too late I am weakened by your touch Now I feel that I exist Not just lifeless skin and bones I don’t have to wonder why Always knew it was my fate My Jasmine said as much 2/22/18 Contest: Minuanetta Sponsor; Gregory R.

Mike, Mike, Mike ... this was absolutely superb and SO close to being a co-winner with Sandra - the demarcation between ALL the entries was minuscule, but this one was my second favorite - so romantic and tender, and stuffed full of imagery and substance! Congratulations on your placement, and thank you for entering my contest! :-)
