Their eyes met in darkness and sparked a flame
His roamed her, while hers fluttered to the floor
Boldly he prowled nearer and asked her name
In a whisper she gave him that and more
He took her hand and drew her out; they danced
Her shyness melted away in his arms
His smile, beaming and wild, left her entranced
He was seduced by her innocent charms
Her hands trembled as they captured his face
Soothing the fire that burned beneath his skin
Into each other they both arched and ached
Pulling one another closer within
With their lips they brought to life a new fate
Their kiss just a taste of what lay in wait
A traditional Shakespearean sonnet

Thank you! I’m enjoying playing with different rhyme schemes, not just my usual chaotic ramblings that intermittently rhyme. π
