This is well written, composed and presented. You did a great job with the prompt, a good contest entry that I hope will do well.
The artwork is stunning and set the tone immediately.
Your writing is strong yet delicate, mirroring the sentiment left.
The rhymes flow effortlessly without force. Good luck in the contest.

Susanjohn: the most beautiful romantic poem I've ever read (or remember, anyway). The rhythm and rhyme are perfection. The colorful picture a beautiful accompaniment. Too many people include too many lewd words and think it is romantic. But, your wording is perfect in every line and carries, very strongly, the theme of pure love. A contest contender! Linda

This poem, Heaven Drenched, is well-metered and rhymed to create a quick romp between lovers that embodies the thrill and rapture of the lovemaking. Nice.

This is a delight to read, as you have not written a "Discreet Heat" poem like this for a long time. The flawless iambic tetrameter maintains a suitably brisk pace, and the fully rhymed (abab) quatrains fit the theme of closely entwined lovers. This sweet poem is a welcome distraction from the stresses of our present times. Superb, and aptly illustrated.

    You are most welcome. You vividly conveyed the desire, passion, and joy of loving without needing to apply a warning, which is the essence of "Discreet Heat." That is not an easy task, but you are a master at it. I greatly enjoyed reading it and look forward to more. This poem is a strong contender in its contest. :)) -- Mike

So well written! I thought for a moment I'd been transported back in time, to Emily or Barret-Browning, or Wordsworth or Keats!

In a world of emojis and GIFS, in a universe where most everything is shared by tweet or text, you've fully embraced the beauty of love and passion and written lines that will bear the test of time!

Kudos!

Karenina

I do wish I had a six this morning for this work of art. I am talking about your poem, not the picture. You are a breath of fresh air when it comes to reading a great poem. I wish we had more poets like you. Great Job. This should win. I would vote for it. Nancy:)

Your contest entry is well thought out, Susan. It keeps
to the idea of two in love and oblivious to the world.
The words are soft and tender as the poem progresses.
Your words create great imagery.
Best wishes in the contest, Jan
