Victoria Anderson-Throop Poet Sapphic stanza

An Invitation To Betrayal Sapphic Stanza

AN INVITATION TO BETRAYAL

             
                         Felt the tickling of spring upon my upturned face

                         Felt the thunder-beating of my unfaithful heart

                         Took the outstretched hand that sought to guide me into bliss;
 
                         Sweetly I fell…..
