A witty, bawdy, erotic but classic collection of poetry designed to celebrate the most sensual of human pleasures. Over the ages many poets have put pen to paper in celebration of that most raw and yet most beautiful of human instincts – erotic love.

All aspects of erotic love are to be found in these poems – from the bawdy to the sensuous and tender.
