Orange Passion

Light by the fire, through orange colored glass Sienna and burnt umber encompass The shades in the spectrum of excitement And passion exudes within anointment It excites the soul to command delight Her heart alights with sensual insight In desire lays kisses beyond belief Through passion I feel the greatest relief Orange invigorates the soul to last Fire warms the body for love’s prideful cast The candle burns with ecstasy inside Leaving us to peel our grudges aside Through the colored glass of lovely passion Feel the heat of the flame’s hot emission Russell Sivey Contest: SOFTLY SENSUAL Sponsor: nette onclaud 8/21/2013

Orange is an underappreciated color. You flipped the presence & definiton of this color on its head! A wonderfully expressed set of stanzas filled with desire & classy urges!
