Reveal yourself to me,
I yearn to know more.
Touch me intimately
From across a crowded room
With nothing but your eyes.
Show me the power of your desire
Tell me how I might grasp your soul
And pull, so sweetly.
Lay with me, teach me to fly,
Hold me within your grasp, that I might be free.
Give me a moment of your life
That I might know the infinite.
From where I lie, I see
The landscape of your body
Stretching out before me.
My eyes travel the plains, hills and valleys
That my lips wish to walk.
I see dark eyes
Smoldering
Watching my touch travel
Along silken dales
Closing only when overtaken by pleasure.
Push against my hungry mouth,
My tongue is generous and gives all
For you.
The avalanche of your arousal
Heaves up the plains, shakes the foundations
And the bodyscape before me
Erupts with the fury of passion
Buried within its core.
Deep in the middle of your satisfaction
I find my own.

I love it. Five stars aren't enough. Your words are truly beautiful. You've captured the raw yet tender emotion of arousal and, dare I say it, love.

You are all so kind, I am thrilled that I have found a place where my erotic poems have an audience.

C.R.,
I find it very hard to believe your poems have never found an appreciative audience before. Don't you realize with words you've written you're liable to have women turn into putty in the palm of your hand you better be careful. |

Oh Judy, I am fully aware of the power of words, especially the right words in the right place, as you will all see when I post further. In fact, I have a poem, which is not strictly speaking erotic, but touches that exact subject, that of a poet on the sexual prowl, called "One Night Stanza". I do not know if this is the proper forum, but it is out there on Authspot, for those inclined to look.

Beautiful! I love the subtle eroticism, much sexier than anything too blatant…at least for poems that is ;0) I look forward to reading more of your work.

This is the first piece that I posted here, and your warm acceptance thrills me. My first chapbook (of non-erotica) is being released this week, and I am published at long last. My FB page will have all the details. My next manuscript will definitely be erotica, thanks to you guys.
Love you all, one at a time. |
