I took your smile and marked it with mine

Wow! Incredibly romantic and so well written! Bravo, PS, a great big Bravo!!!!!

Thank you so much Faith.
This was a poem from several years ago that I reworked.
It's where I want it to be now ...

Appreciate your comment and RL !!

My pleasure as always. I love the poem and the painting. Both are breath taking!

You've made my day
Thank you !

How sweet, Poet Speak! Thanks for telling me. I'm glad I could make your day! That's special to me :) !

It's a good feeling for both ....

I agree wholeheartedly! : )

I agree wholeheartedly! : )

Thank you for your amazing comment monovox

It doesn't get any better than that

Appreciate !!

Your painting goes so perfectly with your poem. Could be smiles bursting with passion.

BIG LIKE (to borrow a phrase!)

You know I've got hundreds of paintings and images so it was hard to choose the exact one.  It had to be right and this was a favorite I did awhile back so I'm glad you felt it !

Thank you so much

Wow a BIG LIKE

THATS SOMETHING

I'm really glad you got into this one.

I write a lot of hardcore stuff but it was time to rework this one and if   I had to choose I'd say writing LOVE is my favorite !!

Appreciate the praise brother, means a lot to me 🤠

BIG LIKE!

hugs,

BIG THANKS bk

Appreciate !

Absolutely gorgeous…
Beautifully written

I really appreciate your comment
I write a lot of extreme stuff and sometimes I like to post a little more aura than sex.
It's interesting to see what people like in a broad cross section.

Thank you !!

I must admit that I have read you much over the years and this is definitely a
softer side of you and I truly enjoyed it.

That's really good to know Keith
This is an older poem I reworked to change the tone and the reaction is exactly what you're saying.
I appreciate the feedback.  It helps a lot !

Thanks for reading me

Dear PS,

What a treasure from the trove! This is beautifully romantic and you’ve come bearing flowers to seal the deal. What a wonderful way to begin the day. I really love the romance and chivalry of this write and of course the accompanying painting is equally lovely. H🌷

Dear H,

There's no better approval for chivalrous writing than your comment.
As you know I can be more extreme but your thoughts are important to and I'm taking notes.  Glad you like the art too.  Looked through a lot of mine to get this one right !!

Thanks so much H

🤠❤

The painting is really beautiful. I love the colours, it's a favorite for sure. Oh yeah! her smile is contagious right? You cannot help but mark it with... * nevermind, innocent look * Held close in a small cutaway... Oh yeah! with me that would definitely lead to other things fast. :p And laser eyes definitely make things spin out of control so fast. Electrons and gamma flying in this cross stimulation. Protection from all but you, because I know what you want to do. Taking... Feeding... breathing in the essence and tasting passion. Something that cannot be provided in one course but every course is a sinful dessert on it's own but together... It's so much more.

One thing leads to another with me .....and you
It's starts with a smile
Sly but mischievous
Marking my territory
Knowing where the secret rooms are that lovers escape to carve out new heights of satisfaction
A broad spectrum of color dazzling the eyes
I laid flowers at your feet
Then we disappeared into a black night of passion  and romance...

Oh my! Be still my heart.... I love the idea of out-of-control tenderness. You do romance so well, Sir Poet! The flowers are a beautiful touch - intensity of colours to balance the softness of the words.
Top marks.
❤️k

Wow
I’ve got to do this more often.
Put away the whip and bring our the bouquet of pretty flowers.  Not a rose guy so not going there.
I’m glad I pleased you k
Thank you
❤️❤️

Sometimes you're this, and sometimes you're that. Don't change a thing. 😊

Copy that k
I'll just continue
No rules
Go with my flow....

You kissed her hard and get her ready for you to give her orgasmic bliss.  Keep on writing.

One kiss from me and she was swooning ...
Prelude to orgasmic bliss
Promised her ice cream too

Nothing like a great smile:)
It just gives warm inviting energy until it draws you
in closer then till your lips are touching. All the phrases had
such buildup. Even mentioned electrons and gamma rays
which makes this super cool as well as passionate:)

Love your art - your forever groupie art critic:)

Another WOW Adelphina Hot Sauce comment 💥💥💥💥

I'm honored really, you are so faithful a fan of words and art.
I am humbled A  

Thanks so much, going to sleep happy 😍

Thanks Ted

I'm a rogue hybrid floral artist ....

Damn you dude.  I want to paint pictures because of you!   Not to compete, but to share in the celebration of the craft.  The same as we do in writing.  
 The way that you combine the two is an art unto itself.  Outstanding talents!

Yeah yeah, artists get the girls, writers get the women.  What does that even mean ??  This is an older poem I reworked.  Something always bothered me about last few lines and it was it time for some redemption.  I'm glad it resonated with you Styx.  You're still the best male writer here on dup.  Together we're a force !!

Appreciate the nod and RL !!

Thx

But,  
It's not about being the best.  It's about descriptions.  Even those who write in a minimalist fashion are still conveying a mental picture.  Because that's what our minds do.  Words are visual aids.  
We write for impact, do we not?  It can be a miniscule one, or huge. But all creative writing is to ignite a spark.  
Once you're warm, you don't disparage the fire.  

In an igloo, sometimes they only light candles.  The inside of the igloo turns to an icy glaze, which in turn acts as an insulator from the outside, which is extremely cold!
That candle is the difference to life and death.  

We are all candles, my friend.  Burn long.

That's why I read a lot of poets here, not just my friends.
That's how I found you.  I agree on a lot you say and appreciate your perspective.  At the beginning of the day and the end of the day for me it's still all about the writing.  

You're still really good.  Just want you to know.

Thanks Styx

Okay.  Thank you.  I'm a product of my environment, which you are a part of.  So, thank you as well.  

That's why the girls/women dig us.
I can't blame them .....
Brothers in arms. Literally
