the soft touch of love drifting with a lover's breath that barely touches the skin -- doubt there is anything more sensual than that. A few words to hold together a lifetime of love.

Hey Yvette.
That is an interesting picture. It is almost like an optical illusion. I had to move my head side to side to figure it out. Your poem gets right to the point. This is a good one.

    Thanx, Z -- not sure that 'sensual' is en vogue here anymore.... but maybe I'll give it another shot sometime :-) :-) Hope your day goes well... I'm off the store! ;) Yvette

    Hey Yvette.
    I have no idea what is en vogue here anymore. It has changed since I left. My publisher told me rhyming/metered poetry doesn't sell anymore. I told them to recite 5 free verse poems to me. Then I told them I would recite 25 formalist/classical style poems back to them. They weren't interested. HAHAHAHAHA

This, then, is a beautifully creative approach to this challenge. It's highly evocative too (*sigh* - lol). Here's wishing romance carries the contest and this wins. Good luck!

This 3-5-3, Lingering Warmth, has the proper formatting and gives a positive squeeze on the idea that people are better off crowded together naked than not.

hmm you took the prompt in another direction than expected. Well done, erotically charged poem but not too graphic expressing desire, love and lust in a short poem

A subtle suggestion of air within those soft gentle whispers. A very well presented 5-7-5, with words that complement the image vey well. Best wishes for your entry.

This is beautiful! I love the way you've captured a moment with just a few words. The word choices are perfect. "Soft whispers" brushing against the skin shows such intimacy. Your ability to convey such emotion and imagary with so few words is so impressive.

How beautiful, yes, the gentle caress from a lover's breath can be as sensual as love itself, a wonderful poem for this prompt, very well written and presented, best wishes****kahpot
