shocking, the view of her attire transparent throughly the ness of Autumn's shy slowly she disrobes herself leaning up against the transcendental sky the tossled blues moan softly as the branches shed the summer perhaps you think you may have captured her as you've sewn together patches scattered, as she unravels ... but in truth you are the one captured breathlessly you await as surroundings become travels she drops a glove of filagree and sweeps you blindside on the path of her seduction the falling leaves toss colors lending pigment to the blank face awnings, then form a bed of painted brass, as she longs to lay her soul upon it with you along her side your senses leave you, stunning, twisting, turning ... falling into her charms, longing for the big finale yet giving her her way, accepting, enjoying Autumn's ride and she revels in her striptease as you play the audience of one for now, for the theatre of her hungry mind as she knows her state of oscillations, her calamity of conflicts, of both goddess and the wench that duel inside she dances upon hidden dreams long gone deeper than imaginations, softer than whispered winds, carrying herself with pride so she brings you to her challenge to seek the very depths of her and smiles demurely at your proclamation that you've claimed her now but the truth within her self she knows, upon your anxious feet, lay merely just a token leaf (or glove) shes dangled for your watchful eyes the seduction never ends though you may feel her slip away, to hold your breath for the moment (or love) is to lose the cool Autumn skies "In life's giving ... love is a gift, such worth living." |

Thank you, everyone, for your read and reply. All cudos go to Inky, she originated the poem and I just tried to dress it back a bit!! It doesn't take great minds to write something like this .... ... just souls that feel a similar passion. (Ink - those windows were dirty at that point in time!) |
