Precarious, the balance between
love or lust, as fevered thoughts
simmer the stews below the
peak of passion’s rise.

Heavenly, the wind blown blush,
so ravenously absorbed...as eyes
sponge...absorbing...

Lustrous, blue skies painted by the
mirror of delicate puffs, awaiting
a gentle breath, that they might
sail.

And below....twirling, revolving, resting
upon a tender point....my heart,  
awaiting the ball,    that each dance
might be....could be...will be...

Ours....ours alone...

Forever...

A heart's blush
in whisper mode.

Well done, Sir.

"Precarious, the balance between

Yes and that is what makes it so much fun...

Barry, as always, I enjoyed.
