Notes About The Poem

When You Say My Name

You wrap my name
In syllables of love
Passion tinged sound units
Caressed by the beauty of your voice
you leave me no choice
but to yield....

breathed into my ear
you release
letter sojourners to travel
down the curve of my neck
to a cadence that captivates
and my heart capitulates
When you say my name....

When you say my name
saturated in n~e~e~d
wanting to be freed....
you make the appeal
wanting healing...immediate...real
your testosterone tempered tonality
temptingly deep...
it sets in motion
Resonance reverberations
that rock ecstasy's epicenter...
my name comes again
riding your waves of want...
it comes
in the full knowledge
that my release of liquid love
will welcome you in
to the inner sanctum sanctuary
where your body is idolized
and your name chanted...immortalized
in the rhythm and rhyme
of passion sublime
When you say my name...

When you say my name
you evoke the spirit of eternity
to dance the dance of life
weaving through and around
two simple syllables
of romantic antics
dancing and swaying
your voice calming playing
the trace of romance
leaving nothing to chance
when you say my name....

when YOU say...MY...N*A*M*E*

How it's felt, more than how it's simply said. Verbalize the trials that hold judgments on our tomorrow. I wrap these vowels amongst your conjugated kiss. French. Dips. Say my name, no. Remember my name... ;-) Absolute kicking lines, Jade/Eileen/Awesome Lady. :D

whoa...you're back to your mastered niche! I like the "testosterone tempered tonality" :-). Between you and FJ, the temperature in PS halls should never go below the warm level...A hot 7! Hugs! Kim :-)

Your words paint the scene with descriptive words that bring the essence of your experience into our conscious mind and we can walk in your shoes for a short time and feel what you feel. Emile.

Loved this, and I guess this is a good time to say, you will always be "Eileen" to me, for some reason this name just so matches to who you are, no offense meant to poor Jade! LOL

"When you say my name you evoke the spirit of eternity to dance the dance of life" What I really love about this poem is it is not just the physical - the sensuality wraps around father down than just the neck, but straight around the soul and into the soul...Brilliant.. always intense and exciting! Always, Laura
