Love's Light
Triple Tanka


Waterfalls of sighs
flow within heartbeats in melt
ardent eyes entice
the birdsong of paradise
to drink of Cupid's nectar

The sun drips honey
to adorn with passion's gown
drizzling down roused curves
fiery tongues trace mango sky
as we lick the light of love

Sangria sipped lips
kiss night of luminescence
stars shine through entwine
in your arms, I am goddess
at play in Luna's hammock

Good to see you Melissa.

For all who watch.Dare you say hello? Come in and ask the questions that are on your mind, but spare me your judgement until you truly sipped of me.

Melissa,
  Is this triple Tanka the three play before the foreplay? Just Joking! These are delightful! Dennis :^)

When the veiling cloud has passed
Playful shadows dance
