“Zanzibar”, painting by Ronnie Biccard, used with her express permission
He Said
Our precious love keeps growing
in this cherished sheltered place.
I close my eyes then instantly
you’re in my strong embrace.
Your gleaming eyes constrain me
then invite my full attention.
I’m convinced you are omnipotent,
that you trust my heart’s intention.
Your encouraging radiant smile
energizes a perfectly close connection.
Ever hopeful, our love inspires us
to revel in such delectable affection.
My lips seek out your fragrant neck
to kiss you softly and earnestly.
Just know and trust that I will treasure
and guard your heart for all eternity.
A note from Chris
This is part of a duet poem and very soon we shall hear from the other half – “She Said” ! Also, I am very grateful to my guest artist, Ronnie Biccard, for her permission to use her painting “Zanzibar” along with my original poem for this post. Ronnie just recently moved to Cheltenham, England from her native South Africa. You can learn more about Ronnie and her art on her blogsite and gallery! Also see her Flickr Stream here!

Romantic and lovely! I can’t wait to hear ” She said ” 🙂
very cool…so is she actually writing it or are you writing it for her…would be cool to perform a duet piece with another poet….as usual, nice sensuality…
This is such a romantic poem! I love what “He Said” I can’t wait to hear what “She Said” Great love expression, Chris.
