    • I really like this! Most of us don’t really soak in life how we used to before we had the world in the palm of our hands & information, entertainment & the pretense of connection at our fingertips. Really LIVING a moment has to be much more intentional—a disciplined decision now.

    • Simply stellar writing…
      No critique whatsoever.

      • Thank you, Drieks 🙏
        I am so very glad to see you, and truly do appreciate your positive comments for this dancing, rhythm-based piece on iambics.

        Bless your day with sunny smiles of gratitude! ⁓ Richard🖌

    • I’m so hypnotized by your voice, Richard. I particularly love how you use enjambment so efficiently and eloquently. What a beautiful word choice… ‘beshackled mystery’. My spell check does not like that word, but I love it. I’m into iambic bondage. Hands behind my back. Wrists crossed. Let your chains caress my pulse.

      • Hi, Sweetness🍷

        Aw, M’Dear … I am sooo sorry to have missed your gorgeous, sensually embracing sentiments, exalting tributes, and sigh-worthy vulnerabile tease … ohhh-MY!

        Damned this site for not sending email notifications that I have reviews, messages, comments, etc; Fia’s working on this for me.

        Been missing your masterfully intelligent, wondrously skillful self … if I knew where you are, I’d lasso you and pull me into there … hint*

        Cozy thank you hugs, ‘n other dreamy stuff! ⁓ Rascally Richard ⚤

    • “Tingles” (in the right spot) can be so sweetly enjoyable, eh? ; )

      Thank you ever-so warmly, Ma’am….
      I must admit delightfully taking pleasure in how your reviews always bless my senses a certain surge of enthralling vibration, too.
      That you think this piece is sophisticated and nicely done, indeed, makes every stroke (of my pen … wink*) feel so satisfyingly enjoyed.

      Happiest hugs to Thee, Lady-Adira! ⁓ Richard🖌

    • Gorgeous, Richard. Just that simple. Shakespear would be jealous. I appreciate the metaphorical allusions, and particularly the dialogue – which is most unusual for poetry. It’s top shelf seductive and intellectually riveting. The ‘Old English’ format adds a gothic aura reminiscent of a time long passed when chivalry ruled romantic endeavors and touching held high esteem in the realm of erotic motion.

      xoxo

      • Why is it, Lovely Dearest Mio 🥀

        The site leaves your passionate bard adrift upon a sea of longing anticipation in receiving the beauty of your voice’s succulently inviting kiss’s touch ~ ‘gainst his fawning, ardent ear.

        Because we flow the same wavelength, there’s no one I’d rather composer for or share with than You, M’Lady Faire.
        A lingering hug ‘n a warm, wet kiss,
        a caress of sweet undulating bliss …
        can you imagine more delight than this?
        (ohhh, I think you can … LOL!)

        Thank you ever-so delightfully for your always gracious sentiments.
        I sooo miss you ya know, Dear Megan ⁓ Richard ✨🍂✨

    • You truly have iambic meter down to an art, Richard, but you’ll never get away with ogling other girls at the bar. We are always watching your eyes – the windows to your soul. Kisses are a dime a dozen, but a wink in a crowded room – that’s a fortune in affection.

      xoxoxo

      • Ohhh, kind, sweet Megan ~ sighhh! 🍇

        Once more, I’m lucky to have discovered more sparkling treasure from your beautifully gifted mind ‘n heart left upon my ever-grateful page … I’m sorry to be so late in response, M’Love, it’s the site, again leaving me in the dark.
        You’ve sooo sweet bragging on my skill, but it’s yours that equals/eclipses mine in every work of yours I’ve so fully, so thankfully, enjoyed the pleasures of. x0x

        HAH! You girls are every bit as flirty as us guys … it’s when we flirt with the one we’re with that sparks truly fly, igniting a full evening’s glow into a trove of romantically sensual delights.

        WINK* ⁓ Rascal 🍓
