she creeps up, sliding smoothly
from cool linen into heavy air
yawns open her arms to the ceiling
Silhouette of
moon back and rolling belly
hair in straggles  silken, twisted
pouring over her perfect shoulders,
dances around the moles between her scapulas
shadows fold inside her fingers  bend over
the tower of neck and jaw
dark blends her features to a delicate black stone and
silently, suddenly she turns
gaze boring out of the nothingness
Blind, he searches for something his eyes can hold,
a word to shove her irradiance into

  Serenity, thank you so much for the welcome. I did not mean to present myself as impatient (when I was much more, frankly, scared). As soon as another post was made in front of mine it received 18 replies! I was afraid of being buried before any eyes could catch my post. How glad I am to see that a  days' wait, instead, brings a slew of back-browsing visitors. Thank you each and every for your comments, and the time taken to post them. I look forward to digging back through previous posts to discover all of your writing styles.
