She moved like a feather in the wind
her grace intoxicated him
her hair illuminated spun gold
fluttering like a butterfly in the breeze
the hem of her lace skirt beckoned
waltzing upon the stage of his eyes
she played him like the fluting winds
he could feel her tantalizing him
teasing like leaves upon a weeping willow
inviting behind the curtain of her smile
she let him undress her like Gypsy Rose Lee
only the fragrance of roses lingered
in her heart she was completely bare
except the fragrance of roses in her hair

Very descriptive, Victoria. Sometimes it seems that our hearts are always bare...

"waltzing upon the stage of his eyes
she played him like the fluting winds"

This woman knows her art extremely well indeed, she knows exactly how to lure this man, this object of her determination into a place where he cannot escape. Fine poetry.
