Silver Strands

pearlized semen strands silver my thighs
we glisten with lametta light
silvered silence after love
the glitterthread bedspread
twined around our legs
the moon-laced room
festooned with
shimmer
thread

    I have not seen ejaculate so romanticised before! :-) Proves anything is fair game. O guess. This afterglow of intercourse is very original...and quite taking, when you think about it! A+ for originality along with your always attractive provocation. Thanks, Charelotte. -Dean

    Charlotte, the imagery is outstanding in your poem. And I'm sure that is how it got rated so high by both me and Susan. Congrats on your win in our contest.
