Autumn's Cool

.

                   “Oh
        the return of crisp”
       so poetically she did
                   bide

                  Yesss
    hern smile was brilliant
                  yesss
    her chemise was softly
                  lucent
 divulging hern vivid beneath

    So I braved the return of 
            Autumn's cool
and hern breathtaking display

     covering her lucid hern

       with mine reluctant 
                    cloak

Dear James, please let me know Noah's explanation of where crickets go. Children often have keener insight than the rest of us. Remember "The Emporer's New Clothes"? Noah will tell it like he sees it. Thanks for stopping by, my friend. Love, Carolyn

So subtle, so cool, so James - dear James. Alway that sly eroticism with just the right touch of humor.
