Wow

 

Sometimes

I search through all my words

considering each for suitability

trying to find one

specific, precise, perfect

fit for purpose

that captures my emotion

provides description

yields illumination

offers reflection

delivers perspective

but when it comes

to you

all I can say is

‘wow’

Let her hands

 

She has let her hands

wander all over

her body

as if they belonged

to a lover

to a writer

to a teacher

to a priest

to an angel

to the devil

to her Master.

As if they belonged

to a stranger.

As if they belonged

to me.

Not new. But always new.

Carpe Diem

 

 

These brave and uncharted days

hold a perfect promise

of such delicious decadent discovery,

of such sheer sensual satisfaction,

of such thrilling fulfilment of fantasy,

of such wild abandon,

of such unburdened joy.

 

Let us surrender

to their sensual rhythm.

Let us give ourselves up

to the magic of their moments

Let us yield

to the endless ache within.

 

For you and I

my beautiful friend

will never, ever

pass this way again.

appeal

fascination

infatuation

enchantment

desire

captivation

temptation

Who can explain

the magnetism

that draws me close?

 

Who can explain

any of it?

I just know

you turn me on.

Written a year ago. Who can explain?

Scent

 

Somehow

across the miles

I catch

your distant scent

and imagine you

close

your movements

your breathing

your laughter

your eyes

shining

the silk of your hair

the taste

of your warm skin

in my mouth.

Not new – but I like it

Art by Daniel del Orfano

 

Possibility

 

I do not just see

your body.

 

I see art

music

and poetry.

 

I see endless

sensual

erotic

possibility.

If by poetry

 

If by poetry

 

If

by poetry

I can make her

flesh and blood

my body on which to press

I will forge

such compelling words

her hungry soul

to steal

I originally tweeted these words over four years past, but liked them so much I elevated them to a blog post three years ago. If elevate is the right word. I hope you don’t mind them again. It is one of my favourite short poems.
