Comment from Evelyn Fort Stewart
Will it's no sin to be tempted but yielding do it puts it in another category. This is well-written and pretty well describes temptation in this area. God loves you and so do I.

Thank you for a lovely review.
Comment from Dean Kuch
Well, dear poet, our protagonist here is most definitely...TEMPTED, that's for certain!
This was a great acrostic, full of seductive, sultry provocative poetic prose.
It should do very nicely in the contest.
Good luck!

An excellent 'Temptation' poem, mystery writer!
You have captured the essence of sexual temptation very well in your acrostic poem. Fave line ... "pleasure overrides decisions" ... how true!
Best wishes for the contest!

Hmm. Very good acrostic, and a deliciously naughty piece. You have certainly summed up carnal temptation beautifully. Should this be X-rated....lol. Very well done.

Very well-written and you have adhered to the confines of this poetic form very well. You have made good use of language, imagery and rhyming techniques. An enjoyable verse.

Whoa. This is mad excellent. The acrostic not even noticed as the piece flowed forward beautifully. This meets the requirements and then some. A great piece of poetry. A well chosen artwork as well. Great work, mikey

Your last T line is a killer. You get all hot and sweaty with 'evoking sensations in your glands' and round it it off so circumspectly in your final line. This is a good acrostic and a good entry.

This is an excellent acrostic with every line delicately but suggestively developing the theme. It displays admirable finesse; good to see on a theme that might tempt lesser poets to go overboard. Really well done.

I can't help feeling that I might know who the author of this one is! 'wanton whispers', 'melting ... inhibitions', 'carnal bliss,!'! Definitely, as you say, 'Not something I would choose to miss'. The moonlit lady under the tree is the perfect temptress.
