Why Men Frustrate Women |

In floral flushed questions, bending to the tidal pull of my longings she asks why do you love me? Drinking her mouth, the moonlight plays on bare skin, lighting my way through her garden as I take to flight. ~ Why do you love me? The color of roses: thorn cuts. ~ WHY do you love me? Ethers gather in swirling turning flushed wan moonlight. ~ LISTEN: WHY DO YOU LOVE ME!?!! Touching me with words woven, a blanket wrapped in opaque bunting while you monkey around? Cards fall, fallen kings and queens making flat love on the carpet where I preach to open ears, a sermon of my moonlit wish... ~ Pretty woman scowls parting her mouth to howl at the harvest moon. ~ Man sings to Luna, now laughing in her soup above the silence. First poem is a Sijo, then Mondo, then Katauta, a Somonka, and two Haiku. Even with insects- |

This was inspired by my fiance who likes to ask that question at the oddest times. Thanks for reading. Sparticus |

The problem is, there are a million and three reasons why I love her! Where do I begin? It is nice to meet you too! Sparticus |

I think I would be in trouble if I didn't at least say...well, your hair is nice and I enjoy the way you eat! At least give her clues! Thank you for reading and your response was golden! Sparticus Even with insects- |

Thank you, Magnus. I don't think I have ever been able to answer it to my darlings satisfaction. Often she stops me and says...just kiss me and shut up! Even with insects- |

Sparticus, The best way is a smile, a look, a touch. Perhaps a brush. |

Deep into her eyes I fall, swimming under warm glints of sunlight as her hair falls, a rainbow curves her plump lips to a kiss. Thank you for your response...good words that I live by...but still she asks! Even with insects- |

This is a question I have never been able to answer. I don't think it possible to put the emotion into words though I diligently try in my poems. Wonderful write, and welcome to PIP! "The secret of life is enjoying the passage of time" ~James taylor~ |

Eyes and Joe... Asking her, she speaks hours on what you mean to her, and still wonders. This is my second post, but I will be doing many more, this site is full of great folk. Sparticus. |
