VALENTINE

Return, my love, to my gray arms
on this cold midwinter night.
Let my eyes feast on your charms
revealed by the moon's sparse light.

Once more might I crush you to my chest
to share our bodys' heat
and feel beneath your yielding breast
your heart's quickening beat.

And let our blood flow hot and wild
as it did back in our youth,
for passion never should be mild,
and pheromones always speak the truth.

So as my fingers trace your skin
and your breath entwines with mine
we'll let the fire of love begin
as both of our limbs enter twine.

Then afterward, when all is still
we'll lie and count cold stars above
drawn close to fight off the night's chill.
Sex holds no match to making love.

As was said to me just recently; This tugged at my heart and soothed my soul, without being overly sickly sweet! Great hearts pour out copious amounts of love! I liked this a lot!

1] Maybe you might say in the 2nd stanza: " To share our bodies heat"?
2] I think you could do without the [and] in the last line of the 3d. Or maybe you could leave out: always]?
3] 2nd line of fourth; Think you might say: " As your breath enjoins with mine"?
Just my little stumbles in an otherwise perfect poem! ~ Gee

There is value to commenting and critique, tell us how you feel about our work.
This must be the place, 'cause there ain't no place like this place anywhere near this place.

Thanks for dropping by and I'll keep your ideas in mind when I do an edit...............stan
