I wonder about the ocean there
behind your eye's sky
when you are looking here
with thoughts on tiptoes
and wondering of my sunshine

if it is really a long coat warm
but sleeveless for your wings
and if the colors of my horizon
would go with your nails
or would you need to hide them

in the palm of my handy
when we were pretending public
with the infection of our affections
and your girl is dressed up womanly
not wanting to be ladylike

or is it but a vested interest
unbuttoned opportune and friendly
for a parking lot passing
with a hungry meter wanting
and pocketed dimes of time

bursting to be spent willing

You paint images
beautifully...

allowing the public
to be impressed,

and wishing they could see
to the heart of the matter
through eyes like yours.

An excellent piece...a

Uh huh~  I like how you leave it up to the readers imagination
about the colors on your horizon.  And I'll bet you're good at feeding the meter too.

very enigmatic melding where oceans and eye's sky comes together...I found this lovely...and whoever, but you, would think about angels being sleeveless or warm?

but sleeveless for your wings

that one line made me drool for more, and you provided it. I got a million images in my head reading from the first word to the last, and wished for more.
