With Eyes of Dusk

He gently looks at me with dusky sighs
Although he’s bared my soul a hundred times
Those deepened eyes unfold to memorize
All captive thrills releasing moans , sublime.

His eyes are twilight’s song in waves of haze
Exploring hunger’s thirst, a moistened glade
And every movement sets the stars, ablaze
To grasp the blooming rise of tunes replayed.

A mounted flavor climbs, and I’m complete
With glow , to open mouth of eve-song’s  fire 
Inside one breath, our tender glances heat, 
Disrobing this and that, moonbeams conspire.

Those dusky eyes anoint my fluid skin
As ripples of chaste love tremble within.

I thought this was beautifully sensual, and it was nice to see the emotional content combining with the linguistic fireworks...I noticed the second stanza was an acrostic spelling HEAT - was that intentional? congrats on your win in my contest! :)

Oh btw, I got your Soupy, I made a mistake in writing that one, I believe I had a second version that was supposed to go out into the contest, but it must have never made it. Sorry about that, my fault my friend, I made a mistake!
