the parted lips of Whim

I want to fall into
the bed of your dreams
as phantom fingers
of smoke reveal

I am bare
with the touch
of your sight,
part the veils
let the calligraphy
of your tongue
write a thousand
love notes
and leave them
beneath my skin

as the pulsing
heat of you
brushed my thighs
I let the force
of my release,
find me
untethered

your mouth
parted my lips
and again,

this is a bed of dreams
I am your illusion,
my words whim and
in a moments crest
I take a breath

H O T!!! Only you can say it so majestically. I love your word choices and I think your mind must be a river of richness. You knock me out with your fluidity. Love, Cat

Bloody long time since I have spoken or written Italian lol I learnt when I was singing Opera and I loved the language so much it was an extra class I took ... I am so out of practice amica lol ... O is a boy and I instantly wrote O cause the only person I ever spoke italian to on a regular basis was over fifteen yrs ago and was a guy ... I sometimes get pissed off and tell the hubby off in Italian and he knows I am swearing at him but has no clue lmao ;) love and big hugs JayCee x x x ("Quote:-For every beauty there is an eye somewhere to see it.

I like the direction of your poetic voice. There is a confidence and ease that flows with your soft spoken power to use more sensitive and expressive metaphors to set the tone and feeling of the poem. You get it and use it to good effect eroticly I am bare with the touch of your sight, part the veils let the calligraphy of your tongue write a thousand love notes and leave them beneath my skin

Seren and leukemia ... I am a funny person Making life a matter of laughter, I would’ve died Twenty years ago had I listened to a doctor Have a positive mind Take Ur medicine And To thyself be kind, Others will love to know u more As u urself Of Ur self share all the more. Diseases are inherent In all of us, Some fuss, Some don't. I am glad Ur a bold person And hope you face life, In full measure And twill be all Neopoet’s pleasure God give you the strength, To be brave And brave you are That’s all for now I can and wish to say These feelings erupted Extemporarily some how as for sharing today loved
