A Thousand Whispers

A thousand whispers, extracted from my mouth
Wholly, my breath slowly drawn from me
Mine eyes closed, they appear like honey to see
Catching your deep gaze, as words go south
What was your name? Please don’t pout
Wet kisses I remember, the best
Biting gently on my lower lip, messes
With my head and makes me swoon, no doubt
Strong hands did find course to mine
To clasp and grasp and ever increase
This rising heart, burning up my torso
My body blushing like California wine
In sight there will be no cease
Wanton desire, growing ever more so

That sounds awesome!! great line on california wine Login to Reply Andrea Travis Date: 8/2/2013 10:11:00 PM Thanks for taking the time to send me these kind words! One comment, and I aim to keep my pencil sharp and paper handy! Working on different forms is presenting a lack of something in my work. All being first tries, I endeavor to keep at it! Thanks again, your talent is an inspiration! Andrea, p.s. great name (means feminine) as I'm sure you know!

Johnny Rhinem Date: 7/26/2013 11:44:00 PM Ps., 'A Thousand Whispers, Extracted From My Mouth.' Quite Wonderful As Creative, Beautiful Andrea. I Am Going To Favour This Magnificent Verse From Depths Yet Found As Also Your Beauty's Self. Login to Reply Andrea Travis Date: 7/27/2013 3:56:00 PM P.S. I read aloud at an event last night for the first time, completely unprepared! Of course it had to be after the readings of 3 of the most famous poets in my area. My selections were anything but well chosen! Your kind comments are enough for me! I will keep sharpening my pencil and keep trying to find that one stanza that will touch or inspire. Thanks again!

'California Wine,' I'll Take Some Cheese And Make It White ˜ Love, John Login to Reply Andrea Travis Date: 7/27/2013 3:49:00 PM Thank you so much for your kind words! I always try to write what I know, but of late, I am trying to draw out some passions of long ago. For passion is in short supply these days for me. I have been studying poetic forms and getting lost in the rules, instead of my passions. I feel my work is suffering. Your feedback is wonderfully welcomed!
