Barely perceptible
whispered breaths
across finest hairs;

kisses feathered
slowly over
aching flesh;

silent finger
traces down
a trembling back;

secret places
hidden under
tempting limbs;

tender pleasures
burning weals
of glorious pain.

Tenderly erotic and vivid. I love the clash of the almost sweet begining with the

"tender pleasures
burning weals
of glorious pain."

clever and seductive.

Joan a touch of the grand passion here.
Only people who have had it know the full meaning of the word passion.

Well done.

The poem is hot and it is a tease. That teasing may be great, but I wanted more than the risk of imagination. I wanted the fact of it (not necessarily graphic) in the body of the poem, and in its connections. I am reading poems by topic, and I love the way erotic poems can include us in the treasury of our conceits (as poetry does)......Great work.
