Best Exquisite Poems
she is an exquisite dinner
awakens taste with beguiling smiles
a platter of kindness
wrapped in delicate crepes
lips that promise
a selection of wines
set for any course you so desire
a delicate glass never empty
a macedoine salad
stolen from the garden
of some goddess
a bewitching soup
dipped from a cauldron
enchantment in every spoon
that reaches the palate
fruits that have come from far
and forbidden shores
an intoxicating sweetness that consumes
all of the senses
and finally the piece de resistance
what drove Greek sculptors to stone
she is sitting across the table

The sound of your voice
Is like a symphony by Beethoven
A beautiful melody by Schubert
A piano concerto by Mozart
I am totally enthralled by you
No longer can I resist your beauty
I must have you, embrace you
Feel your warmth
I am totally enamoured by you
Entranced by your seductive eyes
Your luscious red lips
Your flaxen hair
My heart beats loudly in my chest
At the mere sight of you
I must have you
My arms ache to hold you
My fingers long to explore every inch of your body
To know a passion so extreme
A tenderness I've yet to experience
To gaze upon your angelic face
How else to explain this feeling
This desire, this utter craving
To hold you, to enter your private world
Till that ultimate moment of bliss
That moment when emotions explode
And we become one
The outside world no longer exists
In that exquisite moment
There is only you and I among the stars
We are one!

The grace that shone upon you
When you first smiled on the earth,
Is the same grace that led you back
To where your heart has been called to.
A dove that has settled on you,
Made its nest within you,
Sunk its voice in to you,
The butterflies in your hair
Laugh as the wind comes
Brushing its way past you,
The sunlight that bathed
Your skin each day
Still favors you today
To glow along with its light.
The stars pushed to you a gift,
A present fashioned by God,
Smiling as you took your instrument
And made merry with it to the world.
The universe that smiled on you yesterday, smiles on you today,
Make music then and gift your stage, this earth with a smile.

Shimmering swaths
of cerulean sea
ionize comely light
purple-tinged sand
strewn with tattered shells
during low tide,
summon imperial thrones,
tartly lovely youth
amid sparkling Tyrian swells,
whilst peering
solace amid
vibrant splendor
of landscape,
as serene slopes
and lucid pleas prevail,
I wait with ebbed breath
for an ethereal grace
to ignite a spark
of hope.
We haven't touched yet,
we're just syncing
over ariose love song,
as warm rain and clouds—bow
"Salut d'amour",
violins string opalescent tones
that rise and fall in pitch,
as a link to ink
an iridescent origami doodle
of a jewel-lit song,
summer nights of
ochre acrylics—a plethora
of fairy flickers and fireflies
amid a flurry of filigree,
to inveigle her into playing.
We draw on our kinship
as we float freely,
over crestfallen ocean
a pen swayed in time,
with an Elysian rim
on my horizon,
I whirl my love whims
and swirl the walnut wood
in disconsolate loops,
In a spice grist mill
sprinkles to spice my life.
Keys and gaunt codes
to demure this dalliance
served with Mirabelle tart
and for the sake of Muscat,
as the breeze tickles
those are my shutters
I fantasize about lying,
over her fastidious breast
as empyreal lee of
a sun-kissed knoll,
should she ever grasp
my hand and our
lips converge,
in an esoteric way
would we fit snugly?
as a dovetail joint in unison,
or would we plummet?
to our deaths
in shattered light?

You my undying lover
Are a marvel to behold
No life without you
Our story is untold
Long ago and faraway
Lonely souls met
For hunger and pleasure
The stage was set
Reclusive cabin on
A mountain top
Silk linens dark curtains
Sex that didn’t stop
Skinny dipping
In the pond
Such pleasure
All night long
To breathe of you
Again my soul
Would fill my need
Entwined as a whole
Curtains did not
Open for days
Behind the elaborate mask I wear
You are a tempting sample of wine
Beauty to behold, your face serious
With a dazzling smile, girlish delight,
With the most enchanting looks
that would melt the coldest of hearts
You are exquisite, warm, beguilingly innocent
The list is endless...
When I see you now,my heart flitters
and now more than ever,
I crave for your glowing angelic presence
Happy Birthday!!
The morning yawned and opened it's eyes.The sun emerged and flung it's light. Beginning the day to my eyes an awesome sight. Opaque droplets on the flowers were like glittering diamonds in the sun. Never in all of creation have i seen a more exquisite morn. Thinking this day just begun when i walked with GOD in the garden as the day was being born
She longs for an exquisite lover
to engage between the sheets
Who caresses her deepest desires
as he quicken her heart beats
A man of unlimited passion
that is not inclined to rush
His one and only purpose
to elicit her body blush
The spirit of a musician
Light and firm in the perfect way
Her the perfect instrument
for his practiced hands to play
She wants to experience perfection
from a release that’s so extreme
Her own convulsions of pleasure
as she lets out a raptured scream!
He longs for an exquisite lover
To engage between the sheets
Who’s deepest desires and passion
will quicken with his heart beats.
There is exquisite pain
In being offered a beautiful gift
Fine the wrapping
The bows beautifully beguiling
The attached card:
Love’s testament in writing
Everything indicates
The contents are perfect
What lies inside
Can satisfy, electrify, gratify….
BEAUTIFY, yes, beautify your life
Wrapped up in pretty paper
The outside tantalizes
Alluring me to open
Open…Open…OPEN!
Yet….
I sit and stare
At the beauty before me
Thinking...rationalizing...
Nothing lasts forever
NOTHING
Were the gift to be handled and fondled
It might lose its newness
Its mystic
Its beauty
It might get...old
And so
The gift sits there
Unopened
But there is exquisite joy in knowing
In there beats a heart for you
Strong and true
Experiences fresh and new
When you are stronger
You will pull that pretty blue bow
Yet for now...
it’s good to know
the gift remains waiting...
The gift is for you

Exquisite Love:
Mesmerized by your every soft touch,
bringing forth exquisite feelings.
Each moment of bliss lingers,
enjoying your caress.
Warmth of our bodies
is so Divine,
heavenly,
we now
kiss.
Our love,
heated passion
escaping all of time.
We are lost within each other,
together bonded in our long embrace.
Have eyes only for each other.
Our minds communicate
without any words
Our Love
Love
has bound
us now and
eternally
together as one.
We are two souls now one.
We know of no beginning
and we cannot see any end.
This love, a gift from heaven above.

I love to hold you,
My hands are open wide,
To sense your smoothness
And taste you deep inside.
I peel back your covering
And, to my great delight
Am greeted with a most
Delicious, beautiful sight:
Chocolate, in all your glory!
Mmm, I lightly lick my lips
Anticipating satisfaction
As you melt on my fingertips.
You exude a special richness
That almost drives me insane;
An exquisite delirium
Assaults my eager brain.
I crave to have you near me
Each and every day;
I must get my daily dose –
You tempt, and I obey.
The eye-to-eye association flick life away.
Pretty natural tones ring out in my flyway
Light, invisible hands bait me to the clay.
It's excessively captivating of a grasp to assay.
Blissful lyrics led me to find my way to an archway.
I heard a sublime newly birth beat straightaway.
This soft, serene sparkle enlightens my allay.
Light stream is drawing me closer, yet I'm splay.
Bright rays awe me as I convey a lovely hallway.
My body, then again, lies on the chilly, acrid clay.
It feels incredible to be released of such a weigh
I was bare and defenseless, alike a newborn aweigh.
Steady heartbeats draw me near my doorway.
Once I hand up control to virtue, I can utterly inlay
Still, I'm alive, and I enjoyed doing it anyway.
I can't ponder anything when I stare at the Milky Way.
A dyed eye-to-eye correlation feature is held at bay.
Why should we fear death? Because of doomsday.
All were created by God, the sole crucial soothsay.
We are all born to die, thus is no need to yell or dismay.

Like sailing on a moonbeam, this feeling so exquisite
Never felt such overwhelming devotion
A feeling so intense like the very first time
As I succumb to this heart felt emotion
Written about in books, sung about in songs
Since the very first romantic encounter
Adam and Eve, Romeo and Juliette
The story of love never alters
What's happening to me, love's taken over
The sillies are more difficult to write
Gonna take a shower till my senses cool
This love stuff is giving me a fright
What if my sillies have been lost forever
Might very well resign from the Soup
Known as the jester, funny man of renown
Gonna try hard the sillies to recoup
Like sailing on a moonbeam, this feeling so exquisite
Never felt such overwhelming devotion

Loneliness feels like a cruel jest,
ignoring your heart's unanswered call.
For though love was the goal of your quest;
hopes of finding your soulmate grew small.
Accepting lust as a form of love,
you place the blame on Youth's naive start.
And though you struggle to rise above;
depression drowns your frustrated heart.
A wounded warrior reaps no fame,
reliving battles lost to the past.
For though forged in love's exquisite flame,
fragmented memories failed to last.
While pursuing love with bated breath,
you test the edge of forbidden thrills.
And take your pleasure in taunting Death;
downing liquid fire and magic pills.
Disappointment draws your troubled soul
towards shadows, away from the light.
And levies an emotional toll;
fueling feelings of fight or flight.
love truly simple…
though this life can make it hard
still so beautiful
