caramel on glass with sun behind
my fingers are tongues
tasting the warm window cheek
of your afternoon gown

you are a dancer at the evening
there on the edge of night's high heels
and bare limbs, a vulgar tree perhaps
for the voyeur that dreams this fancy

from inside his lurking lair
waiting for the silhouette of your soul
as amber is the spotlight's lantern
and you are willing to make shadows

that his mind can play in there
like pools with arms and legs
and wind moving hair shapes shifting
into just the waves from anacapa

before illusions bring evening erasures

Once again Dark S, you've crafted a wonderful piece of work. The imagery, and just the wording alone is genius. Your poetry seems to come from somewhere other than this world, lol. Always a pleasure. - Ed

A work of art DS, a keeper for sure! Adored the imagery.

The soul would have no rainbows, had the eyes no tears.

Your word choice is unique..it takes a different road..and shines an altogether different light...maybe that is what makes it so good..thank you i enjoyed the words..

finger painting ones thoughts on skin
lightens a souls dance

My spirit will rise
above the sea~
There will be no drowning
of my soul or me~

outside, it's barely in the 20's
but in reading this,
heart's chambers are warmed

I sit with closed eyes
savoring a Channeled sunset memory
Thanking you for
~an amber moment~
