A Poem for Saturday Night...
Such promise in the bed

Chaste when made

The bedspread tidy and smooth

The pillows covered to keep their secrets

Everything tucked in


Unmade, the story’s different

Has the promise been kept?


Was there pleasure?

And sharing? You’ll need lots of that...

Laughter too

But not from tickling

But from fingers stroking all those lively nerves


Limbs akimbo

Mouths for kissing

Dark wet places for pleasuring


Sharing is the highest joy

You’ll keep the promise

And it will keep you whole.

1. Interesting poem...
It's as if you know my thoughts, sometimes... it's a little scary, even!

Thank you for sharing that. :hug:

11. I love it.
Erotic, but mostly left to the reader to fill it in.

The last three lines are the best...so completely true.

:hug:

12. My dear huskerlaw!
Well, sometimes it's best to let the reader fill it in...

I really felt the truth of those last lines...

In all my years, I hadn't realized that they were true, either...

Thank you...:hug:

18. This sounds very sexual in nature, my Dear California Peggy!!!!
Ohhhh!!! If I knew you were that kind of person, I would have written you poems of my own in the past here! But, I'm no poet, so I'll just say that this was a very beautifully written piece of literary love and it takes an awful lot of guts to bear your literary soul here...very nice work, indeed. I am touched

19. My dear TK421...
Ah, indeed, you have figured me out...

I don't show that side often, but it's always there...

I'm so pleased that you enjoyed my work!

And I don't feel one bit brave...

I always need to express myself...and so I do...

Thank you for your very kind words, sweetie! :hug:

20. Very nice...
The pillows covered to keep their secrets
Everything tucked in


Works on the surface, and also on a deeper level...

21. My dear Retro...
I was really hoping you would comment on this one...

Thank you!

I'm being tutored by my teacher from last semester...

I'm going to send this one along with my homework poem to her, tomorrow...

I hope she agrees with you!

It means so damn much to have a professional writer like yourself comment here...

I really am honored...
