OH totally sensual, with such imagery, one gets a picture of a blast furnace almost..
:) C

... reckon this is a nice upbeat companion to Dry Lightning in your "wings-pairings" for Acts of Flight. The beautiful, melting, fine romance here has been duly noted, but the awe and wonder in this poem derives, perhaps, from the suggestion that such an intense heat may also be a product of the inner being, an intrinsic passion and zest for life whose outpouring in all avenues is as constant and voluminous as Niagara itself. Some passion is object-centred and needs its stimulus to remain alive; other passions derive purely from the "just-is" and it's maybe THIS kind of passion that you talk of here - the sort that is contagious because it is a love-affair with life itself, conjuring and communicating the mystery of dreams and other-worldliness to others because life IS its very own essence. Whatever... tis hot and succulent anyways! :)) xx

Lovely

There, in the thoughts world, in the soul ambivalence and heart intimate secrets, there is always a first time...
But there is also a surrender that's reflected from many mirrors, telling you that eyes, stars and yielding are different each time your eyes get a blink.

Yes the sensual side of you is becoming I must confess.
Now I enjoyed partaking of this offering "moist furnace"
Great title by the way.
"...when I first surrendered
to the will of your thoughts..." my favorite part of this stanza.

Great job Jude

Bring on the Milky Way just as Sage has said. This poem makes me feel all warm and moist, Jude. Nicely written, a sensual side of you that I love.
Much peace, love, light and a warm hug,
Amber "V"

Pouring on the lubricious bituminous! Coal-fired passion leaches a moist mineral bead in the alchemy of coital cosmic romp. Squirt the Milky Way, Jude!

Sage

I savor each sensual line so utterly divine!;-)

Oh my, how I love Spring! Tender and passionate ode to your amore. Ok, I'm going to have to remove the black veil. I'm inspired by this heaven of a write!

Be Blessed,
