Bay of Bliss Premiere Contest Winner

The patina of enticing flowers
flushes your luring lips,
glows in the garden of my flashing face.
In the ivory valley between the mounds,
carved in the lilting landscape 
of concealed craving,
cascades the torrent of desire, 
melting from the frozen lust,
I float in the river of fervor, 
flowing to the bay of bliss.
