Cashmere
Close your eyes and imagine the feel, hers
Touch with bated intensity, softly, she wants to be mapped in long curious stroke
One finger at a time, deep, slow
She is the muse and the poet
Paint her canvas, devour whole
She draws you closer, her breath, listen, feel it
Climbing up your neck, her lips gently whisper all you need to know
She is warming a story, anticipatory rhapsodic rhythm, motion, hers and yours
Did you notice the sapphire rug on the floor?
Take off your shoes, she plans to have you there, take you in effortless flow
Transcend
Take her closer to God
Succulent
A word you should know

Yes, Gawd to these lines, Alisa! Whoa!
“Did you notice the sapphire rug on the floor?
Take off your shoes, she plans to have you there, take you in effortless flow
Transcend
Take her closer to God
Succulent
A word you should know”
And, a very intense and solid way to end the poem. Well-crafted.

Alisa, so very nicely laid out for us. The word “succulent” resounds. I was also lured in by this earlier choice of phrasing “she wants to be mapped in long curious stroke.” The word “mapped” is a gripping word with my interpretation that she wants her lover to explore. Well done. Great picture as well. Keith

Thanks, Keith. I have been exploring certain words more that I like descriptively and trying to build writing around them, succulent was one of them. Some just seem to have a little more juice to them. Bang on with the mapping:)

Alisa, you reminded me of the old movie “Tom Jones” which had a vividly flirtatious scene with the two leads eating succulent fruit. Albert Finney and Susannah York. I believe were the actors. Keith

Should come with a warning for the faint of heart. Goodness, the power of the mind (author/reader) is a glorious thing! It must be engaged in every interaction.
Entirely fabulous *cheering*.

Inferring that such words would have folk lining up to meet the wordsmith. Like the other intoxicating melodies from the Pied Piper of Hamelin? 😊

Ah, I see. Very flattering but just writing, no such magical melody abilities (or desires of, sounds like a great deal of pressure lol). Just my normal life, with my normal coffee date, drinking our normal coffees:) Dreadfully and comfortably normal lol.

There is nothing normal about your poetry Alisa. I hear far off melodies when I read your writing. Now that makes me sound abnormal 😊
