My view on seduction, is that what you're asking me? Specifically love, my thoughts on loving a woman, that's what you want to know? Have you ever seen the image of a woman in the ocean while walking along the beach? You know how the shape is all there but void of definition. You know how the shape is sort of broken, how the lines are not distinct. I wonder if that is what we men have done to women, they who we treasure most. How often do they have to hide as a replica in order to protect our egos. To take a back seat because we have a need to drive the car to be in control. So if we don't allow them to be whole... but you know what else, what if they are perfectly defined the fault is in how we view them. What if that is them we have no role, no blame to assume. What if that is exactly the way they want it to remain, shadows of different intensities. What if they want to be a series of reflections. What if the ripples in the water are of their making. I want to hold a woman. Hold her completely defined. learn more about her everyday because I hold her like a book I'm reading. I will tell you this I don't have a need to know everything. If she wants a locked room that she has the only key to, that makes sense to me. Still I want her heart, her laugh, her tears I want the feel of her flesh and I want her defined. I want to see her not just her likeness. I want her smile I want all the expressions of her face. So you're walking along the beach. The relationship is new for the most part you are with her facsimile but if you look down you can see her feet, not just her impression. I can build from that. She is steady she is with me. You want my view on seduction? You have to accept a basketful of contradictions, you have to read the book accept there will be constant re-writes you have to at least see her feet from day one. If you want to make it to the top you have to start at the bottom don't forget there are some great stops on the way up. Seduction? love between two people that's important. You wouldn't treat your career lightly. Get it right. Make sure she leaves footsteps along the beach. That is how you seduce a woman... ...listen to her ...respect her ...be interested in her career ...her wants, her needs ...her opinions ...remember ...don't talk a good game act.
07/10/2014 Sponsor Justin Bordner Contest Name The Heart Of Seduction I understand this is a extremely different view of seduction and might not fit what Justin is looking for. This is his contest and I wholeheartedly respect that. For my taste this poem is very seductive. In it I share what I believe it takes to seduce a woman.

Hey, Seren I am not looking for anyone. I am happy, very happy being single right now. This is my choice. What I was talking about in the poem was what I believe a man has to do to seduce his partner for life.

I just want you to cheer up if that is possible under the circumstances.

Maurice, A most outstanding write!! Done from the heart and soulfully felt. The touching of a women's soul in the end is most meaningful compared to the ephemeral physical aspect. I think this one is truly grand poem my friend. It's a "7" from me, and it's a FAV. I will show it to my wife too. She will like this one too. Quite moving . . . Quite special. Best Wishes, Gary

and what a break picture used for this poem. Looks the way a person in distance would look to me when I awoke without my glasses or contact lenses to see anything clearly!

well, you wrote another brilliant reflective piece here, Maurice. Who cares if this is exactly what Justin wants in his contest or not. Unless I am a very weird woman, this IS what every woman truly wants from her man, and this is what i have written into my own poems since I began writing poetry, to be understood and loved completely. Hopefully that is all a man really wants too!! Thanks so much for seeing my poems today. THIS one deserves a fave.

Maurice you had me hypnotized with this expression of seductive love. It all sounds so perfect. If Justin doesn't like it, all the women will. XOXO
