Lovers' Throes
Folder:
Tongue and Cheek Aethereal compassion
Darkened stone
Material expression
Lovers' throes
A sense of sense
A touch to touch
A softened kiss
A hardened tone
Such sinful bliss
Has risen up
Inside the midst
Of lovers' throes
Whisper sweetly
Tongue and cheek
Shed the myst'ry
Reach to me
Lay me neatly
Twixt these sheets
Oh, let me know
Sinful sweet
And don't let go
Feed the need
Start off slow
It's not a race
Then let go
Pick up the pace
Take me back
To love so sweet
Make it last
This sweet release
My other side
You've come to know
Both yours and mine
These lovers' throes
Ahhhhh
Speechless!

Twice, you say?
That's quite a compliment. I'm usually on the other side of that wow, but in fairness, yours did inspire this, so technicallt, you kinda wowed yourself, vicariously, of course.

Vicarious
Or not, I'm left with the wow factor.
made my day.. after I got off the floor.
ive had very few poems to echo back.
maybe a collaboration might be nice sometime ,if you like.
hey, I rarely say wow or take a poem home with me.
accept it, you'll just have to take the accolades for it.
smiles, hugs,
Koko~

Accepted
Equal credit considered, where equal rhythm's due
I will proudly take my place among the poems that you choose
A collaboration effory, may be just what the doc prescribed
I may enlist a volley of the poet's on this site.
Check out "The Rhythm in the Rhyme", and "Don't Regret the Rhyme", and let me know if you're interested in working on another of that caliber.

I Found It
I see your love of words, the sound and texture, lost to some poets consumned by form and meaning. I mean the first 4 lines what do they mean who cares its a verbal image setting the tone. Loved it whan i read it on Koko's feed. Better yet that I can get some feed back on the verse. What say you?

Tone setting
Aethereal compassion = heavenly love
Darkened stone = Turn down the lights
Material expression = touch
Lovers' throes = Wrapped in each other
Sounds better when left to the imagination, I think.
When I write, every line is consumed by only feeling.
Quite glad it captivated you so :)

Ahh Yes I See
I had most of that but the darkened stone. I lie I had only the first line but I saw it as universal almost other worldly concern for the lover. Heaven is too fixed and defined. Aethreal is vaporish and undefined. Which contrasts nicely with the material expression. Heaven is full of angels and expectations.
I appreciate you defining your imagination for me. Such an intrusion. I agree, the feelings are the thing and the words can be mired with explanation.
Heaven
Can be ethereal, or other worldy, and can be a construct of the living mind.
My favorite aspect of poetry is the reader's ability to choose the meaning. What it means to me could mean so many other things to others. I wrote one about hate and regret once, and everyone thought it was a love song. So I reorganized it as one.
The beauty in the rhythm is for the audience to choose, after all.
