Strip tease becomes a beach resort Leaning over chamomile leaves sweet Pulling at my lower lip Startled looking eyes Blinking rapidly This way and that… Holding a robin’s nest Made of grass & twigs Necessities Close to naked body Swinging Boldly harmonic While shampooing hair Snow lights stick to a school path Wearing a walkman Doing cartwheels on the ground Streetlights came on early this winter Playing poker in the doorway Winning twice this week Gave the importance of sports And my stuffed brown bear A whole new meaning Whitecaps and waves in my photograph Tosses and turns in my sleep A Fullback of expectations Used to drive me work Now I ride wild horses Moving past all holes in the ground I kept my sandbox from childhood Walking across the street, all by myself My stone box keeps on the bookcase Standing there looking back My throat still tightens in the cold Then the feeling passes Catching my first ever glimpse of nostalgia Allowing it to caress my skin Proudly wearing a candy strip uniform Fleshy arms doing dinner –table impressions By candle light and a warm interior Sneaking a peek at melting puddles With an opened mouth grin Whatever it is, and however subtle Something real lies in strip tease Nuzzled up against my shoulder |

Thanks for taking me along on your walk... But you don't have to strip to tease me...A sensual mind, such as yours, exposes me ( by reading this poem) to a higher state of arousal than any dance might, ( emphasis on "might") and is far safer for the both of us....  Enjoyed _________ice/ford ><> |

Hi and good morning Many thanks to each of you, for reading and kind comments...but before this gets outsted to the mature content forum....this is about a gal who used to be very shy and quiet, afraid to be herself...afraid of verbal expression and articulation...then one day, she started blooming like a flower, and became like a bird out of a cage after 20 some years of a living prison... the Strip Tease is her being her.... |

i enjoy the striptease too but only in the comfort of a very special audience still kind of bottled up, belive it or not love your pictures created |

LeeJ, I know that I say almost the same thing every time that I reply to your poetry..... but lady, you do have a way with words, and paint a vivid picture of your thoughts with your words. Hugs, Ethel |

Many of us have our closet that we need to come out of....and this is no exception. And you related all of it to us in your Leej fashion that is so uniquely wonderful. |
