Notes About The Poem

We Eclipse As Sun and Moon

Gatherings from my heart 
   fervid thoughts as they seep
from its depths they are churning 
   my love runs fathoms deep
Flowing from pointed nib of pen  
   evocative words alight
I envision you reading them 
   in your dreams tonight

Do I fulfill your masculine cravings 
   your most erotic desires
Have I kindled flames of passion 
   until they are blazing fires
I've tasted your moistened lips 
   as they whispered low moans in plea
and felt your body tremble 
   with its alluring need of me

Are you engulfed by tumultuous waves 
   of yearning when I draw near
Do you ache, needing my touch 
   when my voice you hear
If you are impatient for the eclipse 
   of our joining as sun and moon
Then I'll know you feel as I do 
   and love is equally in attune

A deep tenderness reflected in this poem, sensual in its spiritual sense...the phrase sun and moon pay homage to a line in the Neil Diamond song" Play Me" ...a beautiful poem...Poet

Such a beautiful and sensual poem. This one reads as if it is a dream. It is very deeply emotive and enchanting. Your words flow so smoothly that while reading I became lost in the visions this created and forgot I was reading. Really nicely done Lin. Romance and desire definitely fill your pen my friend.

It's written from the viewpoint of a woman who has just been loved, and as he sleeps she writes what's in her heart. Thank you for such wonderful remarks, Chris.
