Victoria Anderson-Throop Poet Sapphic stanza

Night For Contest Sapphic Stanza

NIGHT

             Blue hour, slip away to bless me with love’s languid throbbing touch--

             Relinquish quickly dusk our celebration ‘neath night's blackest joys--

             Hide sweet beneath this gown my stolen lover’s hungry hands--

                                                                        Til shame rises with the dawn.

Dr.Ram Mehta September 4, 2013 at 9:31 AM I enjoyed the concluding line Victoria Anderson-Throop September 4, 2013 at 1:42 PM It is always a pleasure to have a reader choose a line that is also MY favorite. I agonized over it...but let it stand. Thanks for reading, but most of all, thank you for taking the time to comment.
