The Song of Summer Youth (II) (Free verse) by cleverdevice
The air was Elysian As clouds chased the breeze. Your hand was in mine As we slipped through the trees. In that cool, shaded orchard We picked apples and pears, Amid the fragrance of summer Was the scent of your hair. The touch of your fingers As they ran down my arm was gentle and easy Like the August day's calm And sinking to the ground Thoughts needing no say We lay there for hours 'Til the Sun slipped away.

Up the ladder: Final Goregasm
Down the ladder: Beyond Redemption

could be good. I won't vote now, because this obviously needs to be edited.

good language and a pleasant vignette.

BUT can you do something with the last line (maybe I just have trouble with last lines?).

I keep thinking of guitars... (plus you could do better I think).

Yeah, it is somewhat cliched/crap.

And ye shall circumcise the flesh of your foreskin; and it shall be a token of the covenant betwixt me and you.

Ah, but which finger shall you wear it upon?

It needs a few more commas at the end of some of the verses, but other than that, a very good read and an excellent write.
