Purple

She's here, pouring softly towards my lips
Curves and glossiness mesmerize
The strength of taste and shine
She settles before me, at first an eclipse
Then luminous flowing sways and dips
I desire a sense, not of the eyes
The taste of joy a thousand times
Dullness sets in as the venom drips
And soaks through my senses,
Slowly invoking a passionate surge
Of emotion, unhindered by those
Inhibitions; once providing fences
That did all they can to suppress and purge
The unfiltered love that now thrives and grows

Your poems have a real natural cadence about them that make them strong. Which form is this. I will look again. Does this fit into the sonnet pattern? I've got the rhyme and the line number but not the five feet.....I also like it anyway. - elmeer
