Frenzy
mindbodysoul

Catch my heat
 1
on your lips,
 2
breathe it
 3
into chest
 4
 
 
let it dance
 5
in your lungs,
 6
set your senses
 7
into a frenzy
 8
 
 
release your balance
 9
and fall
 10
on my embrace
 11
 
 
blanket yourself
 12
under my wings,
 13
as we soar through
 14
the divine
 15
 
 
and then rest,
 16
under the sea of
 17
our creation.

 — fractalcore

Thank you, that was my dilemma as well.
I'm thinking :)
 — mindbodysoul

hmm. how about "Into a frenzy" or "Frenzy" or "Frenzy loving"?:)
a very beautiful love poem
 — nisetru

Thanks nisetru......good idea, I'll try it out .
 — mindbodysoul

Hmm...this makes the recent best list with only two ratings?
I would be proud if that weren't too strange for me.
 — mindbodysoul

you seem to use "your" a lot. "into" too.
 — DeformedLion

That I do.
 — mindbodysoul

maybe some form of 'we' in the stanza before L18?
Good jorb dear.
 — EpicPants

This is very good. I like it alot and can't think of anything to improve it.  Great job.
 — PaulS

Why thanks, to both of you. Ooer, this is #3 now?

Some form of "we"? Before line 18? I don't quite understand :(
 — mindbodysoul

the only thing i can think of is to remove the "your" from L4...in a way that thought is completed with the "your" in L6-- a kind of exhale.
 — DeformedLion

Yeah, that's a good idea, thanks :)
 — mindbodysoul

Sensual...pretty...poetic.  :-)
 — starr

forgot to fave this.
: )
 — fractalcore

ooh, thanks :) I should write poems on the spur of the moment without really thinking more often.
 — mindbodysoul

ahh, for some reason I feel like line 4 is so awkward though...after reading it a few times...
 — mindbodysoul

Great flow, good work
 — larrylark

Thank you very much Larry :D

set your senses

into a frenzy

send, perhaps?  I'm not sure frenzy is a setting on my senses.

Feels like a standard lovemaking poem to me, has a nice rhythm as well.
 — technomancer

You can "set" something into action
rather than send
like setting off a trigger, that spark
that flickering action, unconsiously done
rather than "send" which is more an active verb
than a semi-passive one.
