Wistful Sunset Surrender

Violaceous twilights, 
      clandestinely sated 
lavished 'til morn's early blush
     midst honey suckled euphoria,
 poetry hidden 'neath 
         silken pillowcases,
written 'tween the dew 
    of rendezvous' 
       blissed arousal
evermore eagerly breathless,
      reawakening intentions
  aloft the vast obscurity of
     a wistfully surrendered sunset

It might be nice to see one of those sunsets with you:) I'd let you describe it to me while we watched. Very eloquent, Paloma.

I am always enchanted when I come to your page. Your words gather before my eyes like a warm summer day, always leaving me wanting more. You have created a twilight like I have never seen before. This is absolutely beautiful

Very beautiful! Life can be a joy, can't it, if one does more feeling and less explaining.... The option to be happy and prosperous is a thought away--and needed then only a pen and paper to write such perfect experience as poetry to relive for self and others through eternity. Another context of the Living Word.
