Covert

Fay Slimm.

 

 

Covert.

 

Such an ebony hour as this
readies dun moments for stolen bliss.

Dusk's satin sheet rises
to cloak secret places with hunger 
yet sunsetting over
finds darkness hides bundles of risk.

Fugitive love plays
alluring games when two crave fire.

Such covert conscripts 
night to form shadows for hiding.

Re-created are thrills
for covered in twilight's illegal kisses
double coupled desire
keeps need alive to seek clandestine.

Yet pleasuring ends 
if ardour wants more than caresses.

  • Violet bluebell( used to be yellow rose)

    A good read fay 🙂 interesting words

    • Fay Slimm.

      Thank you Violet

    • L. B. Mek

      sizzling sensuality, and yet
      I sense the brevity waters you ink upon
      I may have to come back to read again on Monday, dear Fay
      dive a little deeper
      oh and just gorgeously worded
      what a reading treat

      • Fay Slimm.

        And humble thanks for this lovely review dear L,B.

      • orchidee

        Good write Fay.
        Fido won't let me have any 'ardour'. lol

        • Fay Slimm.

          What a shame Orchi - - but glad you thought the write good.

        • arqios

          Kind of like role playing but with a more romantic bent. Reminds me of an Audrey Hepburn movie "Paris When It Sizzles."

          • Fay Slimm.

            Wow - - I remember that film and beautiful Audrey - -- never gave thought to those gone bits of sizzle though Rik when I conjoured Covert.

          • dusk arising

            wanting more when even the kisses are illegal is treading on dangerous ground

            • Fay Slimm.

              And I agree wholehearted dear Dusky - - but who among lovers today I wonder minds the danger when arranging for Covert . - -- so glad to have your welcome perception on my take on gentle erotica.

            • Doggerel Dave

              Such a twist, Fay. But both must know...otherwise....
              Reminds me of something I wish........

              • Fay Slimm.

                Too true that arrangement must have duo approval Dave -- and you ended this comment very beguilingly - could it be Covert brought you back special mem'ries. ??? Oh dear - I forget - - -- "a gentleman never tells."

                • Doggerel Dave

                  Not sure I'm a gentleman, Fay - but it would be all too complicated and biased on my part...and too revealing...

                • PoetVids - I am WriteBeLight only in Video Version :)

                  Another Masterpiece Fay!

                • Bella Shepard

                  The dark of night adds an alluring dimension to passions that daylight never seems to hold. Such an appropriate title and so beautifully phrased. A real gem dear friend.

                  • Fay Slimm.

                    Your review reads like a poem itself dear Bella and thank you - - am delighted you enjoyed my take on Covert.

                  • Neil Higgins

                    Me again.
                    "Night's satin sheet rises"
                    Not going to "expand" on that Fay,but what a wonderful love poem.Oozing with well,love 🌹

                    • Fay Slimm.

                      I thought you might pick out that phrase dear Neil - -- and truly appreciate that you choose no expansion but let the mind cogitate on the ooze of love.

                    • Goldfinch60

                      Beautiful words once more Fay.

                      Andy

                      • Fay Slimm.

                        Yes love has many faces and Covert maybe one to those seeking romance. Thanking you Andy.

                      • Neville
