The Virgin

undress her slowly
be gentle it's her first time
a temple yet unexplored
pain leads to pleasure
if only you take your time
yet young men can be anxious
moment ends prematurely

The beauty of the moment is in it's brevity. I don't feel very qualified to comment on the majority of romance pieces (even if I do write them on occasion). It's not my forte, but this was well written!

I must say I don't prefer brevity

chosen the words beautifully. "Temple yet unexplored" Khama Sutra says, burning incense sticks and flowers to be kept. Nice poem. For u I have written ABC - my first

Nice poetic form with vivid, realistic expression. I'm glad you didn't get too graphic as Alfred expressed (in his a infinite wisdom) ... total refinement of a very controversial subject. :)

No one made a comment about Madonna here?.....touched for the very first time.....like a virgin. Oh well, the point being that virginity can be a state of mind as well...or role. Very steamy write! My favorite line here? "A temple yet unexplored!" WOW!

I'm touched for the first time every time. Never gets old!
