Since the fall of man in the garden of Eden, we have felt uncomfortable when nude and totally exposed. Sometimes even in the company of those we trust the most. It stems from feeling totally vulnerable when completely naked...and we are--totally vulnerable. But when two share a love and passion for each others touch much as you've so perfectly described here, all of that vulnerability, tentativeness and pent up inhibitions melt away into longing, passion and pleasure.

This is very tastefully done, Missy, and simply conveys how romance should be when two people are totally engrossed in the throes of passion.

Best of luck to you in the contest. ~Dean

For a woman to be naked and unafraid says much about that woman. She may be vulnerable but not with lack of self esteem and confidence.
Excellent poem on a woman's experience.

Wow, sure sounds like there was going to be a big time in the old town that night. Now, I'm just wondering if your knees going weak from what you saw was for a good reason, or not. Thanks for the pleasure of another fine poem. Darn it, how could I already be out of sixes so soon.

This is a dazzling poem, Missy, powerful in its directness. Nothing the reader needs to go look up. It's all there laid out on the screen, naked and vulnerable.

I'm glad I got to read this. It should do well in the contest.

Very seductive and sensual writing :) I love the artwork you put with this. The title caught my eye, and the writing explained the rest. The part where you write, 'You hold the sheet open, I glimpse your body, My knees go weak .... that says so much that I can actually think of something visual. You have a wonderful way with words.
Shana :)

This meets the contest requirements and then some. It is a well penned free verse with stunning emotion and imagery evoked within the reader's mind. It is not flowery or frilly, but speaks to the simple essence of life in graceful eloquence. I wish you all the best in the judging and thank you very much for sharing it.
