A most beautiful and economical moody piece that is glorious in its simplicity. Extraordinarily commanding and self-assured, and, at the same time, yielded and graciously sensitive; such "relaxed comfortableness" seeming to arise out of a position of true emotional intimacy between those so engaged. Aligned it most certainly is - as opposed to the more usually ambiguously self-reflexive or oblique lines you pen. And face-to-face contact as opposed to the more "inclusive", one-or-many angles I am usually able to find in your work. If Fertile Surface was sticky toffee, this has now become hard candy; you obviously have quite a sweet tooth! You said you had "some ideas" but you didn't say you were thinkin of takin up a missionary position! :)) A potent and penetrating write and no mistake, Jude! Reckon you've bin on the multi-vits lately... doubt if anyone can sleep after this; poor Elizabeth must be exhausted!! (Brit-humour, OK!!) :)) LOL K xx

Passion at its heights! Great write. Then again if one was to read this on a spiritual level........What an awakening! ;-)
I think you have outdid yourself in this poem as it touches on the very core of the sexual united with love aspect of relationships. There is one thing tohave lust but when it manages to unite and grow with intensity then it is fireworks indeed.

Oh my, this is smooth. Like the old-time pumps that had to be primed by first pouring water down the pipe before water would pump out of the spigot. Damn, Jude this is pumped! I hope she remembers the alignment and her readiness at dawn! Blessed Be.

Ha! You can't sleep either, Robert.
This is beautiful... did you aligned...more than once?
If you tend to believe romantic, passionate, masculine poetry is a thing of past eras, read "She Intrigues Me," and be swept away in the beautiful craft of a contemporary poet of love.

I think the brevity in this adds to its intensity. I love the last two lines, quite an impact!
