Lady Says Yes

Soundless is the breath
every time a lady says yes
trembling with passion

Eyes awake and full of
desire, a please upon
soft red lips

With the heart beating
faster, while her cries
become louder

Weakness overtakes
senses that have fallen to waste
when a lady says yes
the world seems to end

While heaven feels so near
rising higher into the clouds
white as an angel's skin
soaked in dew, each drop
sweeter to taste upon the tongue.

    I actually liked this one--but remember poetry is a bit of a mystery to me.

    This is really pretty! I loved the imagery(the second verse in particular) and I loved the gentle contrast between the last two verses -- weakness and heaven.

    Very pretty Muse. And I always like it when a lady says yes, at least to me.

    What a pretty poem, your last verse was awesome, Dark! BTW, I looked up Sappho, as I had never gotten any exposure to her during my schooling (huh or what!!). Thank you for bestowing this gift to me and perhaps to others in your entries here at LitNet!
