Not for tomorrow

Its all so new and exciting the power to say what I think

a secret smile

a knowing glance

a hand not quite touching

 

Will it be enough

will it carry through

Can it last til the sun sets

and then rise anew

 

Those answers are not for you or I

but for now I writhe and feel voluptuous at your touch

 

sparkling we glow, setting the world alight

absorbed in each others company

two hearts in mid-flight

 

I can not think of tomorrow

of failure, or shame

I can only think of now

of sunshine,smiles and now.

Difficult to describe intimacy at times but you have managed to do it well - liked especially the final stanza.

Thank you. Very now and very erotic too. The eroticism of total meeting. Your poems have great immediacy. Thank you again.

(PS: Is there a typo in "will it carried through"? Should it be "will it be carried through"? Just asking cos I'm the world's worst typist myself! ;-)
