It Wasn't... |

It wasn’t the look of her.....or the walk that swayed as gentle as a palm. It wasn’t the softness of her voice and alluring smile...I must say, it was none of this as she walked away from the darkened room, through the metal door and through the light that scantily clad the worn walk. Her eyes...so deep and flickering, letting passion lap my brows and stifle the sigh that welled. Her lips that painted oceans waves, smoothed the dimples of a canvas...caressed each curve...sipped the fires. Her blush, deepening as each second betrayed her and brought her within my grasp....though fleeting and for but a moment. Her hair, lingering around a tiny earlobe, dancing over a lash...caressing the small of a slightly curved back....downward into the reaches of tranquility.... Haunting me, all of this...as dreams brought her ever close, yet wrenching her from the cloak of darkness behind flitting lids....dancing eyes. And ... in the moment before awakening, a lingering trace of a nail...bringing shivers to an arched spine....waiting to dream again.... And dance....once more... |

Barry, That is way cool and a fine keeper. I really like this write. You rock dude!  If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again. |

I often wonder when I read words as this, if there is someone out there that thinks of me like that... Very, very seductive Barry.  "too bad ignorance isn't painful" |
