Bounty On Her Heart

Princes and Kings have tried and failed
To win this free woman’s heart for them
She cannot be won some say she is a restless spirit
A soul with no mate a heart with no shape

Some have offered her silver and gold
Others castles, kingdoms and pieces of land
Her loves cost cannot be summed with calculator
She takes offense to those who try

Infantile men wounded by rejection
Are driven into flashing fits of rage
Threats against her friends and relatives
Are something she sometimes endures

What is it about her some would say
That instills a propensity to fall in love
If you are clever enough to make her smile
You would be blessed to feel so copesetic

Her incandescent beauty radiates bright
Drawn from the energy of a thousands suns
Some would consider her seduction burlesque
Most however find the flavor delicious

A touch by her hand can induce a catatonic state
Lets you have the fortitude to withstand
Something unnatural and ageless about this girl
Which is why the world wants her hand with no exemption

Spitting image of a goddess turned mortal
Flowers grow wherever she walks
Feel her presence and you will understand
Why there is a bounty on her heart

-Poem by Dragon Blogger

Jenn and I decided to try a little poetry experiment where we would collaboratively create a poem. It started with an email with one poetry line and then a response with the second line and continued until we both thought the poem was finished. Neither one of us would know what the other would write, after the poem was completed we each came up with a list of titles and chose which one seemed to fit best.

I liked A Lone Wolf’s Heart, so I am re-posting the full poem. You should check out Before I Am Famous and Dragonfly Poems for Jenn’s other work, she is one of the people who inspired me to create a poetry blog in the first place.

A Lone Wolf’s Heart

Release these chains around your wrists
Stand naked before the weeping moon
The Howling wolves within your heart
Consuming fires engulf your lonely soul

Will you find that long lost love?
Will you find your savior from wretchedness?
Your bleeding heart shall shed no more tears
I am waiting in the shadows to join you
Where is your knight to slay the dragon?

To free you from the dark serpents
Justice and valor seem a distant memory
Come and let me enrapture you
Kiss me tender then kiss me firm
Our loneliness vanishes. In the inferno from the dragon’s mouth our bodies melt
Passion is assured with my heart being saved

-Joint Poem by Dragonblogger and SummerDragon80

Thinking About Curves

My mind keeps dreaming of your curves
My senses ablaze tingling my nerves

Smiling so tender I see the curves of your lips
Teasing me so tortuously with the curves of your hips

As if that were enough your curves know no bounds
Even after all these years your body still astounds

The curve of your back and tracing down your spine
If your body was a temple then you would be my shrine

The curve of your face putting all others in their place
To have and hold you I would begin this endless chase

All other activities, games and chores I would divest
Just to peek at the curve of one beautiful breast

I peek around the corner feeling like a spy
You emerge from a bath water dripping from your thigh

One can only want and nobody really deserves
What I would give to caress some of your curves

Poem by Dragon Blogger

Give You The World

If only I could wrap you in a cloud
The sky would be yours to soar
If only I could sail you to the sun
The sea would be yours to command

Moving mountains would be at your command
If the strength of gods I should possess
Slay your worries as knights slay dragons
I shall be your one true hero

If only I could provide more than I am able
Would it show just how much I would do
For you are the one I live for
I aspire to give you the world

Poem by Dragonblogger

A Flash

A flash and my mind goes numb
did I just see this girl walk past
my heart stopped beating and time stood still
just enough time to gaze at her beauty

A flash and I had to act quickly
before this lady left my life forever
how would I get her to notice me
my hopes and dreams rest on this second

A flash and I reacted on instinct
her hand came into contact with mine
a jolt of surreal knocked back my senses
this girl just overloaded my mind

A flash and my eyes met hers
a small smile crept on her face
she knew my thoughts and I felt hers
that was all it took to win her

Fifty years later that lady is still with me
How I remember each and every flash of our lives
our children our grown and our time is dwindling
what a life I have lead and it will end in a flash.

-Poem by Dragon Blogger

You Will Always Be My Love

I was born with a single purpose
A soul who was lost without a mate
A journey I have undertaken
Our lives are the only stakes

In finding you I felt whole
In loving you I am complete
My soul is in peace and my mind at rest
With you by my side the world is at my feet

We have had our fair share of pain
And a sprinkle of some grief
But destiny would challenge us so
As if to test if we are true

So loving you is loving me
My heart shall know no other
For you are the greatest treasure
And will always be my love and our childrens mother

-JRG

Into The Night

Into the night we strike this fire
Into the night the candles burn
Into the night our legs entwine
Into the night our souls will yearn

Into the night we speak our desire
Into the night we breathe as one
Into the night we know no others
Into the night we have some fun

Into the night we love not hate
Into the night we seal our fate
Into the night our body’s drip
Into the night we take this trip

Into the night the moon is sleeping
Into the night our bodies lie resting
Into the night passion never dies
Into the night our pleasure is cresting

Into the night we lie in pillows
Into the night we dream of nothing
Into the night our lives are fulfilled
Into the night we end with us sleeping

-Poem by Dragon Blogger

Just Friends

There you stand gazing across the room
At a woman you have known and loved for
what seems like an eternity

Her graceful moves tease your eyes
Her lips touch her glass
Her smile makes your soul quiver

You start to sweat as your heart beats faster
This woman you have known for half your life
This girl you watched grow into a woman

How you try to proclaim your love for her
When you two spend a quiet moment alone
She looks at you and in a moment not quite right

Your smile fades quickly realizing you opened too fast
Before she speaks the words you feel your soul rip
I love you as a friend

-Poem by Dragon Blogger

This poem I wrote from a contest on Twitter, where I asked my followers to direct message me random words and I would craft a poem.  I have highlighted the contest words in blue.

The Lust Queen

With eyes that can swallow your soul
a face carved from the purest marble
a smile so evil yet so alluring
you weaken at the knee’s

The sages warned of this portent
this queen ravages those who worship
with a body that calls to any man’s sex drive
and a spirit that invites the most pious priest

So the mortal man gives in to temptation
The Queen savors his body like cheese and wine
His will breaks, his body broken
She discards him among the pile of those who came before
