Whispers, fleeting
turn to Serenades
As bodies cascade
Across Velvet
And silk
until
Light of the afterglow
Ever Ethereal
Reveals an Enigma
Encoded with
a Labyrinth
of anxious minds,
ever antagonizing
Disquiet hearts

I felt sad - all that sensuality and passion and then uncertainty. Moments where (and I'm not punning, I swear), things come together and harmonise and then, it's like a searchlight is shone and insecurity appears. Made me thoughtful. Which is good.
Wow, such a passionate description gifted in a love poem. Great delivery.
I loved this, so beautiful.
Ooooooh....this is some poetic fire, Mr Fromm. Great entry and great use of the prompts! Well done, man!
This was great Matthew, well done!! The imagery here is spot on
