Poem Title:
Poem
Written: April 18, 2025, for Contest Sponsored by Brian Strand ******************** . . . here comes the m o o n taking shape as a girl her golden skin, aglow peering through the door and slipping into the room I grasp her across the crowded space cerulean hair cascading as a waterfall over rounded c r e a m y shoulders her eyes glinting as twin stars are framed by a curving smile that splits her shell-pink lips as our gazes lock, such a gentle breeze that tease spring buds her laughter carries a sweet scent of honeysuckle beckoning me to step closer here comes warmth a candle soft flicker and amber flames dance silently around the silhouette of her curves shadowed with f e r vo r winding through a maze of people I find her waiting beneath the half-moon her hands outstretched like a lifeline pulling me from dark waters our fingers intertwine— her skin is smooth like sateen sheets I twist myself into the folds of her body as her silken velvet voice melts between teeth like sumptuous chocolate mousse our parched mouths meet kisses crash like thundering waves drinking in the tart berry sweetness and savoring every flavor of her here comes desire a flash of your eyes a kaleidoscope of storms reflected in the blue— caught within the blue swirling like northern lights on a cold winter night I lay dazed and amused drawn to your smile here comes a kiss upon our warm, starlit lips and I inhale your scent a sweet, rare perfume aura under sheets of rolling hills caressed by moonlight the river whispers “drown in my f l o w.”
