Innuendo (lyrical poem)
63
Innuendo
We met somewhere
On a staircase
When our needs
Touched
Like fingertips gliding
Over lace
The skin beneath
Dancing
As we started
To experiment
Each other’s company
The fruits sampled
In short visits
Those first days
Were loose
Playful
The butterflies still
Beat their wings
In our stomachs
We tried to taste
Ecstasy
Eyes ever fixed
Hands searching
Fumbling
To unclasp the secrets
Locked within
The sweetest flesh
Hair slicked back
Dripping
All those tears
Kissed clean
Before dawn’s dew
Arrived around us
Glistening
Our lips dragging across
The potion bottle
Just a drop
To tantalize
Arouse the scented
Flesh
Wholly exposed now
Our mysteries
Scooped up
Handfuls of diamonds
To purchase
That sweet nectar
At any price
Whatever the cost
Leaving us breathless
Panting
Crashed on the beach
Milky waves subside
To reveal us naked
Alone together
Clutching
Heads pressed
To the sand
Listening
To the deep
Rumbling
Of the ocean
Belonging only
Exclusively
To us.

The esquisite simplicity with which you expressed such complex emotions - powerful and delicate at the same time - comes to prove once again, not only your talent as a great poet, but also your sensitive side (which I very much appreciate).
Weird title , but I liked it. Thanks my friend, you did it again. I never get bored to visit your hub. Keep on writing. See you...
Prasetio:)
Hi Doug You always come up with something refreshingly different. You painted a vivid picture of young love with all it's warmth and subtlety. You have done so much in five short weeks and your followers long for more. Cheers mate
Rather nice I would say. And well executed. Erotic but not overdone. i enjoy your poetry. Glad to have met you. i will read more.
What prasetio said, lol.
Great poem! Brings back memories:)
OK, Doug...What was in the potion bottle you guys sampled..?? Whatever it was I want some !! Nicely done, well phrased and moved with an even flow to the end...Thank you for this intimate peek...rated up, way up...Larry
Wow,you have the gift my friend,love on a beach,what more can one ask for? m e m o r i e s.
Cheers
Doug- Awesome! The mystery of an innuendo like the potion in that bottle, captivating, alluring, addictive........Bravo!
Great stuff my friend --- just the right balance, i really like 'scooped up handfuls of diamonds' --- is a beautiful line... is ok for you to do a couple of really rubbish hubs now, you are starting to set the bar too high :-) :-)
Oh wow awesome - you absolutely knew I would love this. Brilliant - I'm pressing all your button here, just like you've just pressed mine!
.....excellent use of wordplay - actually quite dazzling is this poetic exercise of yours - and will probably send the epi-man back to his sandbox to build sandcastles!
Very pretty Doug!
Sensuality, breath taking, hot, sexy, exciting loss for words as sweat beads down each others tight bodies in ecstasy. Two lovers settling the butterflies flight and enjoying the nectar from the bumble bees flower of sweet honey to the taste. Brilliant wrap of words, enjoyed this one very much Doug. Bravo...
Your words create a whole new meaning of innuendo for me. Thank you. "Belonging only exclusively to us." is a powerful conclusion.
Well than warmed me up!
"When our needs
