Carnal Haven (adult content)
Carnal Haven
(Adult)
the climax of my youth
was spent in his arms
where he stirred my inner muse
with slow hands and hungry thigh
he conquered my inhibitions
transforming me into
the keeper of my own soul
together we pushed the boundaries
of the erotic envelope
while prodding fingers of velvet softness
pressed against darkened star strewn skies
the voyeur in me came alive
sprouting wings of passion
from the sating juices of honeyed release
while the late evening breeze
whispered sweetly of night blooming jasmine
in a forbidden lover's garden.

Beautifully written
but you know what I don't like about erotic poetry?
I'm not involved.
I don't like pornography either.
cheers,
Jess

Thanfully I Love women and passion..Eroticism
In my time and travels there have been
lovers gardens and winter beds
while snowflakes fell
like whispers
and A man can admit defeat when
a womens spirit and drive is
seducted away by a master
there will always be women
interesting
women
beautiful articulated souls
falling into passion with this poet
I love erotic works
and muse poems like this
Love the detailing
and the words fitting
"jasmine"
terrific poem Cat

Poetically erotic
Calm, quiet and serene,
by our age all have been
through the ravages
pages
delightfully of life .
Your ecstasy supreme
in a version of erotica
non porno-screen
sends signals of youth
in between,
the teen
and
those who have been.

Looking for Jack
and found this. I'm a shy old prude, so I can't talk about content here. But the poem is sharp. Of course, I get lonely for even rhythms and a rhyme scheme, but I'm growing. wesley

Borrowed Title..hence your appproval is needed Cat...
Carnally Evil (only for adult minded)
The life within my arms
spent was spent
from day one to the end
and I had no need to say
Amen,
Till today I have
yet not been totally spent…
The souls belonging to a species of a kind
leave indelible memories far behind,
betwixt arms and limbs
we slaughtered day without and day within
yet not satiated to the fullest extent,
we have many more years to spend,
ere we are finally done and spent …
The life of exoticity well spent
in the arms we love to remain
ever entwined and don’t say friends,
no it’s not yet time
the passion has yet to peek
still in each other’s arms
we still orgasm seek
and perish as the night slowly passes by
and another day comes to stand by.
such ecstasy of forbidden love,
who damned said twas forbidden?
no life would seed for a moment,
if twas not spent
well spent each moment
life continues still
till in the tunnels
it continues to spill…
loved

Dear Loved,
Beautifully penned. But try a few other adjectives in place of "spent" such as ( tried, used, paid, exhausted, disbursed, etc.)
Thank you for sharing with me.
