In so much of every day
The emphasis is on a need for speed,
Slow is unproductive!
And can make it hard to compete.
But later, when it’s time to play
In a realm where passion is the creed,
Slow is so seductive!
And can sweep you off of your feet.
(Take your time to let love climb. . .)
When you take your time,
Then you summon love’s muse,
Then you fuel desire
Into growing,
When you say that I’m
Here to handle love’s fuse,
Then you stoke a fire
Into glowing.
Then it’s ablaze!
Then it’s aflame!
Then it’s a rumble and roar,
Then it’s a craze,
Then it’s a game,
Then it’s a tumble of more and more and more. . .
Succulent in every way,
That would be the banquet of our dreams,
And who would think of rushing?
Who think of dining in haste?
Love gives us the same buffet,
From soup to nuts, from paté to ice creams,
Full of flavors gushing,
Full of its ladle of taste.
(Be the star of your boudoir. . .)
When you take love slow,
When you nibble and sip,
Tiny, tiny bites,
So fulfilling,
When the tongue can go
On a marvelous trip,
Aiming for delights,
It’s so thrilling!
The flavor of you
Is all that’s required
Making lovemaking a meal,
The savor of you
Is all that’s desired
To make the ideal the real. . .
This splendid meal. . .
