Passion
By Jean McLeod
He scooped her up like sand
that ran warm through his fingers
all her angles smoothed.
Sighs bloomed
more honest than breath,
a song floated off their edges
incandescent blues
inked shadows
sweet musk
a glissando
that ran warm through his fingers
all her angles smoothed.
Sighs bloomed
more honest than breath,
a song floated off their edges
incandescent blues
inked shadows
sweet musk
a glissando
I love the romance, and the visual touched me.
Ah, the love and romance of it all in line after line of verse leading to a wonderful glissando! Beautiful, Jean.
Great imagery. Love it.
Love the wording Jean.
Jean, an exquisite
dance of romance and psssion.
Thanks so much, Jeanette.
