Seduced By Larry Chadwick It isn’t what you wear, Or even how you wink. You do it with your mind, It is the way you think. It’s not the shape of you, Or how you strut about. It’s how you communicate, Yes, even when you pout. It’s not the hair that flips, Or how you set those curls. It’s what’s inside your head, That always makes me swirl. It’s not the food you bake, Or how you keep our home. But what you do inside of me, Just like a little gnome. It’s not your touch, Or looks you give. But how you contemplate, The love that you will give. Though all that’s nice, Don’t let that go away. It’s the seduction of my mind, That really makes me stay.

Very sweetly put, Larry. The inner qualities of a person shine through, be they man or woman. That is what is loved, for me. Enjoyed your poem! |

Larry...The mind can be a powerful aphrodisiac. That kind of seduction can be more intriguing. This poem is power-packed with seductive images. ***Ivy Rose |
