Notes About The Poem

Wanton Wantings

You know what I want:
sweet love prompted lust
It's not fueled by greed
but cushioned in trust

A need to connect
Forget what's not right
It happens right here
when day enters night

It happens just when
you come to possess
All else disappears
with tender caress

A sphere of delight
brought on by your kiss
the ripples expand
and bear me to bliss

it happens just when
you thunder in me
sensors scintillate
you set this girl free

You know what I need
your smile tells me so
my eyes take a shine,
my body a glow

I'm yours, for your love
Seeps deep in my core
This rhyme testifies:
It's you I adore!

With the new system I am spending less time here. In some ways that's probably better. I used to check every time I got a message, which at times was distracting.

Hi Eileen, are you getting email notifications from Poetry Soup. I have written several times but no one is getting back to me.

Richard....they have a blog about this. They wrote that they wouldn't be sending notifications, but that we could check in our poetry comment inbox....or some such thing. Check out their blog on the latest features. Let me know. They haven't been responding to my emails either. Very frustrating. Hugs

I adore poetry, Tim. I adore self expression. The categories that TPS provides for this type of poetry are...Passion and Sensuality. They also have a category entitled...SEXY. ;) Go TPS!! Yes, life without love and the physical expression of it would be very boring. Thanks for the visit, dear.
