Inspired by an old haiku of mine.

Honey ... you Sweet on my tongue Licorice and almond eyes Dark hellos, darker goodbyes Begetter of my sugar rush Such corporeal candy crush Thighs and sighs to heaven's hush Lush, to wonder just how deep Oh so slowly, tenderly Love me fast to sleep Hard sin, saccharine Very confectionery ... My Marzipan. ~ 1st Place ~ in the "Metaphor Of Love" Poetry Contest, Bobby May, Judge & Sponsor.
