Even now the images appear.... As lace casts the mystery of light upon skin Enticing eyes to watch as she moves in circles against the brush of hands while the sway of curtain matches the move of rounded hips to music Only her body knows how to sing Should I have been painter The canvas of morning would take the base Of her spine and scribe along the ends of nerve How love, mixed with grace Brought to prayer the intimate words that my lips would color tender a Parted soft..the pinks with tip of tongue but vowels or an arc scribed in Belief and faith The map of complex curves measured degrees that sigh an indigo of line where The shortest distance is not sought And the way her breast rise and fall do not perplex the mind But soothe the eyes as the beauty of form is shown To be the common shape of flesh And I meander with fingertips along the images Conjured with time to bind upon the dawn a blindfold left from midnight's eyes and utterances of words relief, release, repast whispered softly Blue [This message has been edited by Cpat Hair (07-14-2010 10:10 AM).] |

A good read here, even for one no longer a schoolboy. From your descriptive words I can picture the dancer and imagine how she looks, is dressed, and moves seductively. The slight putdown of her vocal singing (if applicable)---the wish for more basic vowel sounds---and the tension between midnight desire and daylight reason are also appreciated... |

I think this deserves another gander! and if you're taking requests, I have an older favorite that you haven't posted here. ~Sunkissed  |

Sunkissed... requests? LOL what is it you are thinking of? I thank you for the eyes on this.... and for the kind words. I must warn you.... much of what I have written in the past is no longer around, so if there is something you have in mind you want to see, then if it does not exist in the archives here, it may well be lost to the winds. |

The poem in question was called "Written of Us" I really loved that poem. I hope that you still have it. ~Sunkissed |

I had the poem for a while, but our computer crashed and I lost it, along with "Psalms of souls." Still, it's nice to see you posting again. I join so many other poets here who truly enjoy reading you. ~Sunkissed |

This is so very exquisite! And oh, please do not let your poems escape on the wind! I was profoundly sad when I read that, because it would be a crime to lose any of your writings. I`m sure I`m not the only one who feels this way. I pray they are recorded somewhere, hard copy. Best~Amaryllis |

I have a terrible habit of deleting pieces.... and did not save a lot of what I have written. The archives here hold quite a few and I have looked here and there at other places I have posted, but they do not archive with the dillegence Ron has built into this sight, so I fear a good many are gone. My own thought on the matter is.... that it is no great loss.. LOL.. but thank you for the kind words and thought that they might have been worth saving. |
