Gregory Richard Barden Poet Rhyme

Notes About The Poem

Sense In Sensual

The redolence of tropic garden orchids
          A hush of tender whispers in my ear
               The tang upon my lips of your amrita
     A tingling on my skin as you draw near

Your fragrance is narcotic to my impulse
          The sonance of your voice, a drug divine
               Your taste, a sweetened opiate, inviting
     And velvet pelt, a thing of grand design

Please ruin me with essence and aroma
          Destroy me with the music of your sighs
               Consume me with the flavors you desire
     And feel the rapture ... as your virtue dies.
