Sanaa Rizvi is hosting dVerse Poetics today. The subject is exploring erotica as a literary genre. Subtlety goes a long way for me when it comes to erotica. I love pushing my own boundaries – not that mine are that cut and dried by it is still a genre not familiar.
The early morning sun
caresses their slumbering bodies
awakening one, who traces the rays
over his lover’s body with a soft caress
She stirs and goosebumps rise to meet his fingers
the heat from his body draws her close
a kiss on her nape shivers down her spine
and soundlessly, in unison
They turn to each other, then
ever so gently his body covers hers
as they welcome the day
with a rhythm borne of love
A Dalectable Life
