Veiled Naivety

Wear it, just for me

so that me he might slip it away
from night eyes
beholden only to him

holding only to him

triumph eyes glazing

amazing

tweaking time to tilt the whirl
where numbers age he’s reversed
leaving prior words once voiced said

simple thoughts of when, conversed

all, tell me, that you have seen

as browns and grays meet blues and greens

then finger tilting once again
Quixote’s mills are otherwise bound
the veil is floating, over ground
skin is silk in leather wound

~*~

some say danger travels land
others say he’s Danger man

all I know?  He has my veil
and naivety is my sure dwell.

"Veiled Naivety" ~ great title!

"tweaking time to tilt the whirl" ~ Terrific use of alliteration ~ and imaginative concept!

ms deca
me thinks he has your veil
and you draped it over his shoulder
by accident I am sure
after you tied his hands
with your smile

kewl romantica ms

While I'm thinking of it, I know someone who looks mighty good in a particular color, but never wore it until I asked her to...and now wears it all the time.

Those simple things not the real subject of this poem, but as you'll know, that color wasn't the real subject either.

Deca...you write the winds of passion very
well,  your name carries with it that feel,
that desire...that soft but lingering
touch...that stirs the reader.
