Beautiful Muse

She is draped over a chair, Artfully fashioned Like a fine piece Of silk. He imagines that her softness Would sweetly mould into His hands Like ripe fruit. She stays still and silent, Letting him consume her With his hungry eyes. He drinks her in, The fullness of her breast, The gentle curve of her hip And the honeyed tones of her Naked skin. Her natural beauty Has him mesmerised.... Lips apart, Heart pounding, Motionless. He feels the heat of creation rise in him And with power and purpose, His eyes break contact as He touches His brush To the canvas. © 2012 Ruby Honeytip

Wow! This is fantastic. I love how short you've kept most of the lines - mimicking the rapid heartbeat or shallow breaths of the artist. Adding this to my faves!

Ruby I immediately thought of that famous picture of Christine Keeler on the chair, I love the way you tantalised and teased the reader, Lucien Freud would be proud of this..excellent....David

Ahh, Ruby Honeytip. Don't you do this sort of thing so beautifully. If I was a teenager I might paper my bedroom wall with your poetry.
