Wetness sparkles in shining dew upon my skin where your mouth has lain upon me.
Loves kisses falling on my face anoint my heart as they drip like rain upon me.
If a story of our love were told there would be a golden light around your soul.
Brilliant as it flashes through the night, burning away the tortured pain upon me.
Brace above me in the haze of your passion with your face nestled against my throat.
Your hair flows through my fingers, over my touch, against my breast, a mane upon me.
There are hot moments that we could lose ourselves within as our hips slap together.
In our lustful sex, as we mate, you push the burden of being sane upon me.
I don't want to realize the world is nearby when you're loving me so damned well.
Sing songs of love and let them surge up, bursting in bubbles like Champagne upon me.

ShyErraticTableover 17 years agoYou don't have voting turned on, unfortunately, or I would '5' this. Excellent expression of the ghazal form.
The radif is particularly clever. I am jealous. (How do you know a table is jealous? Because it's painted green. ;-))
In all honesty, I am envious of this poem. Oh. And it's sexy, too.
*Catbabe*about 20 years agoBeautiful seamless use of form made even stronger by the clever messages woven into the piece.
Apnaabout 20 years agoBubbling, delicious, and slightly intoxicating!
The "ghazal", a form evolved for the expression of romantic and amourous sentiments by the Persians and adopted by Urdu, Hinhi, Punjabi, Pukhtu, Balochi and Sindhi poets, can be a very powerful vehicle.
Champagne, if she really is of 1982 vintage, shows a singularly remarkable maturity in the art of prosody, and has used the "ghazal" form with telling effect. The ghazal can be composed in different metres, and Champagne's choice of an intricate metrical pattern adds to delicacy of the poem.
