PHOENIX OF LOVE
BURNT FACES IN DARK PLACES
REMNANTS OF A RAGING FIRE
DUST TO DUST, ASHES TO ASHES
MEMORIES LIKE LIGHTNING FLASHES
A BREIF MOMENT OF DESIRE
GONE IN A BLINK OR SO WE THINK
AS THE SMOKE CLEARS, WE SIFT THROUGH
WHAT APPEARS TO BE OLD FEARS
SEARCHING IN VAIN IN AN EFFORT TO CONTAIN
THE SPARK WHICH MAY RE-IGNITE
LOVE LIKE THE PHOENIX REBORN-REUNITES
DESPITE OUR RELUCTANCE TO FEEL THE FLAME
OUR PASSIONATE HEARTS STILL CRY
EACHOTHERS NAME
IT’S OUR STRIVE-TO FEEL ALIVE
IT’S ROOTS DEEPLY BURIED, IT’S STEM IN A HURRY
TO PUSH ABOVE AND FEEL THE WARM GLOW OF LOVE
GRASPING TIGHT THEY TAKE HOLD, THE CYCLE BEGINS
AND THE PHOENIX OF LOVE UNFOLDS AGAIN AND AGAIN

Like your uncle said, a touch of that old libido doesn't hurt, that's of course if the wife doesn't read it, then, Duck my friend, that's another can of beans! ! !

This poem envelopes the climax of love and spiritual enlightenment. I loved the way you used the capital letters to really grab the reader.
Nicely done.
Peace, love, and light,

a touch of erotica goes a long way
Peace be with you
