Here lies love coiled around my leg so long It pulses its muscles every so often It relaxes to softness at other times Will it cut off my circulation? Will it sink into the sand? There goes love slithering away from my leg It flicks its tongue in the air It sways its tale to and fro Will it poise for a fresh victim? Will it disappear into the sand? Somewhere lies love coiled along another branch It waits patiently today I wonders what will come Will it ever find me again? Will it follow me into the sand? everyday is a new day; forget the past, remember the future. |

glorybox, this poem shows a very interesting concept of love. Fascinating and seductive. Be well Kethry. "It is the image in the mind that links us to lost treasures; but it is the loss that shapes the image, gathers the flowers weaves the garland."- |

great work Yes love I think maybe love is ever changing with turmoil and emotions that tear us apart at times or bring ecstacy or joy and happiness. Blue |
