Kiss me slowly
so I can hear
your thoughts
on my lips
Touch me slowly
so my body can translate
all the desires
you write on my skin
Ravage me slowly
so I can feel
your every
surrendered movement
For John’s interpretation, he imagined doing a slow dance.
For me, I was not nearly as pure as John in my imaginings 😉
I really hope you all enjoyed hearing a guy and girl version of the same poem. A big ‘thank you‘ to my poetry friend, John A Reyes for collaborating on the recording of this piece.

Really enjoyed the words and John’s reading of them too. “Your every surrendered movement” is a fantastic line. Great collaboration!

Mich, I just have a quick question… would you be willing to give me permission to link to your page for an award post I’m doing? It’s not for a nomination (I don’t do those), just a mention because you are fabulous 🙂 Otherwise, I can simply write your name without the link if you’d prefer.

Love it ST. I could feel the command in your voice which bought the sensual meaning of the words by a female writer.

Oh my, This was simply delightful!! Loved the romantic and sensuous words. The audio made it perfect because it allows for us to close our eyes and visually imagine the words being spoken!!! Beautifully recited by both of you!! Very nice to hear it in a male and female voice!!!
So does your endnote also mean that you might be willing to record a followers poem???
xoxo
😍😘💕🌹😁✨

Oh thank you Chuck 😊 I’m so glad you enjoyed both readings as well, I felt it added a lot to this one 👍
And yes, that’s exactly what it means… within reason of course 😆 At this stage I don’t think I’d load them onto my own page, but I’m happy to try recording someone else’s work and send it to them 😊
