Summer (1 & 2)
By jayhawker ©
Dear Reader,
I was reading a chapter on meter & rhyme in a new book I got in the mail today, “The Poets Companion”. One of the exercises was to write a poem in iambic tetrameter, rhymed or unrhymed.
This is what I came up with. (These two poems are only mildly erotic, but “Non-Erotic” didn’t seem to fit.)
Summer 1
One day it was in summer hot
I touched your breast with lips so soft.
The love I felt your satin skin
As down your breast ran sweat a drop.
Ran slowly down that skin hot skin
We came together then in lust.
The heat within more heat with out
One day it was in summer hot.
Summer 2
One summer day we came to play
We met so chaste in love at last.
We joined in haste no time to waste
Now from our play yes now we pay.
Your waist was slim your figure thin
But now it changes your body rearranges.
Nine months have passed our love still lasts
We now find joy in this our boy!

KOLKOREalmost 17 years agoWhere so many stumble and mumble, you navigate with a steady hand in all intimacy roads. whether it's down a soft breast, tracing a sweat drop or all the way to the heat within. It'a as innocent as a childrens rhyme and as erotic as children first innocent exploration game.<P>
All you did was taking the aid of a poetic form, the rest is you. If anything the technical guide helps you expressing yourself even if you think that it's just an exercise. No matter what uou do all you can bring is always -you. So please do not heed the advice you were given here and stay with writing poems not meta threads.
Anonymousover 18 years agoI quite like Summer 1; Summer 2 is, I think, not as good.
I particularly liked the first line/last line repeat in #1. That's an effect that often doesn't work for me, but I think you make it work pretty well here.
Nice exercise. I may try it.
