I want to take myself
into never and ever
and then wherever
come back again
and dance in glimpse
and dash of soul
the eye will smile
in blush (again?)
in that guarded moment--
bared--
simple silence
of aware
and glance of chance--
planned happenstance
spontaneous
of thoughts in dance

Dance with me?
(oh, dance with me?)
Could you, would you,
kiss me? Please?
fingertips upon my back...
kisses--liquid, train-on-track-
shivered
electricity--
enough
to drop me to my knees.

Silken satin succulence...
What is the ending to "enough?"
Please...I beg you
meet my eye,
there is no better
way to die...
please (i whisper)
come inside
teasing hither
(come alive)

A Dance! A Spark!
A Tambourine!
A ribbon twined
and uncried scream...
and spices in the air give haunt
the gypsy dance is more than taunt...

She is the challenge--
serpent's greet...
a dagger's danger
at your feet
dancing in infinity
figure eight curled round fool's feet.

Bravo!!! Oh, I just loved this Serenity!   The flow is simply superb! It dances along in tune with your sentiments ... from internal rhymes to alliteration, the whole piece is a beautifully rhythmic adventure. I've read this several times over ... VERY much enjoyed!  

Best wishes,
/Kit

I do love the way you write. This is such a flowing, rythmic piece, with such moving thoughts. Beautiful.

If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please?

I do so love when you dance and cast spells of rhyme divine.....
this is absolutely awesome Sen.
Must be read aloud!!

Here I stand like it matters...
once love is through-it gets scattered by the rain
and pain gives me the right to be unkind ...

Yup, JM is right, you definitely have to read this one aloud to fully appreciate it.  Now I loved it (don't understand the mechanics like Kit does) but man, I loved it! Bravo sweetie!

Luscious Maree....I DO have my moods!   Sometimes they even leave me speechless....
But thank you for your loveliness, it's much appreciated!

wynter...sparked? more like reaching a flashpoint! But yes, it's quite the blissful agony...thank you as well!

Kit, your critique means much to me, as I DO try to employ the tools so generously taught me by the "elders" here at passions, I thank you for noticing and for your you heart high praise...hand over heart bow of gratitude to you!

Trace...that's a genuine lovely compliment and I thank you much! It's part of why I write, and I am so grateful for you letting me know.

JM....me's in a dangerous mood of late...in a quandary as to incant or RECANT....but it is what it is...and I love you for being here...hope all is well! HUGS....

Sharon...most of my stuff, as I think I've told you I actually sing as I write, so thus it tends to lyricism---and hey, I hope you know how special I think YOU are....smiles...hope you are healing!

Ron? With me as a partner? All you have to do is show up!   Thank you m'friend!

sandra...I think I am too tumultously sensual...scary at times!!!!   thank you lovie!

Nance....thank you as well, I'm glad you are enjoying my poetry...it's been more of an excorcism of late, but again, it is what it is....smiles and thanks.

Sven? I've told ya a million times....GINSENG!   AND STOP? Bwahahahaha...

Thanks all, with love and gratitude......
