    • This is a truly seductive write. enjoyed this.

      • Thank you, Fia 🌻
        How lovely of you to select this one to read and leave such encouraging words in review.

        Hugs ‘n smiles to You! ⁓ Rascal🖌

    • You’re going to seduce all the women on this site if you keep it up, Richard. What the hell are you going to do with all of us? We can’t all fit in your fucking shower.

      I love a man who can write a Sonnet.

      • Hmmm, Dear Lady-Poet 🤔

        A conundrum, M’Dear, if ever there was … but, as vibrantly imaginable as that cozy scenario is, imagination compels a creative bard to queue them all and admit 2-3 at a time; or, spend the coin for a bigger shower. I mean, anything to avoid leaving anyone out … LOL! I do like that title, though … “fucking” shower – ohhh-MY!

        To be loved by You for any reason extends far beyond any response my humble words could justly reach.
        Bless your darling heart … I’m thinking, “More sonnets!” ⁓ Rascal🖌

    • Oh-MY, right back at you, Sweet Adira!🤗

      What better for a hopeful Bard than to receive the glowingly sensual approval of such a lusty femme fatale? This, I cannot answer. ; )

      Aw, give those guys a chance … they feel the same, I’m sure, with You there to compel their fervorous blood to flow … even if the caresses of their words might not as vibrantly kiss your yearnings’ ache.

      Ohhh-YES, Dear Poetess, repeats are always warmly welcome! ⁓ Rascal🖌

  • How you'll know I Love You (sonnet doublet)

    Here's one pulled from the shelf and dusted-off I thought our onsite romantics might enjoy. It may be too long for some … you decide.INTRO: In as much that I knew this piece would be about love, the decision...

    • Ohhh, Dear Lady 🥀

      You must keep mindful, waiting at that window ~ whispers light certain kinds of flames, you know.
      So sweet, your efulgent encouragements, Adira; surely, a humble bard (such as I) would never expect to outshine those many grateful fellows in your life who’ve come to adore you … I’m sooo pleasantly, sooo sumptuously surprised!
      Love your beguiling sense-of-humor, and your most lovely compliment. ; )

      Thank you ever-so warmly, Adira! ⁓ Richard🖌

    • I have to tell you, Richard, I feel like I’ve been driven to your castle in horse and carriage, ushered out into a flourishing rose garden, and wisped up into your arms bridal style over the threshold. Take me to your bedroom and the balcony that overlooks your domain. Carry me up the winding staircase and lay me on fresh linens. Strip me naked in your ravishing furry. Take me, Richard… not as a king takes his queen, but as he takes his young mistress during a heated fit of passion inside the dark, hidden chambers where her shrill cries of mating remain dampened. Read me your sonnets when I’m strewn across your bed, obliterated. Let the finches build their nests while you play in mine. Kiss my rose and everything you see. That’s how I’ll know that you love me.

      • Goodness, DK 😳

        Your graciously gorgeous review rivals my Sonnets in its compellingly fervent bliss, in wantoned kiss, for it’s all THIS ‘n more, but that’s what loving’s for … oh-MY!

        Loving you’s what poetry was invented for … now, to make it fit the page without burning down the site!🔥
        I’ve received reviews, and Reviews; yet, it’s hard to ever recall a REVIEW such as THIS!

        With a weak-kneed, melted into my socks … grateful thanks, Dear Poetess! ⁓ Rascal🖌

    A Mother's Hug Goodnight

    Frigid, calm front hides in northern winds,vast sky of my bedroom dims. Stream in wintericed over, mother's embraceletting go at bedtime. Still rainfall,sky's dark pillows,eyelids become anchors, smothering. The cold frontblanketing these damp lids,peacefully covers the coming storm.

    • Powerfully penned, Daniel. You were a great writer then as well my friend. Twenty years ago huh? My high school days seem like a million summers ago. Appreciate you.

      Damian

    • My mother was the opposite of this. Now though, she’s a different person. You have an exquisite way of expressing yourself, Daniel
