Kim Rodrigues Poet Verse

Cherry Blossoms After Midnight

CHERRY BLOSSOMS AFTER MIDNIGHT

his sweet voice, I savor
i shake off the shivers of December
his cordial words warm me
i adjust the heat, grab another blanket
the vibration of his vocal cords
similitude of a lover’s lullaby
the sea so gentle, the silver moon
i’m lulled to sleep by his cherry blossom lips

Carolyn Devonshire December 19, 2018 at 7:41 AM Kim, nothing attracts me more to a man than his voice. My late husband was a radio announcer with a deep "lullaby" voice like my father's. I could feel the warmth emanating from your beautiful poem. Succinct, but poignant. Winning wishes for you in the contest, Carolyn Kim Rodrigues December 19, 2018 at 7:45 AM Thank you, my friend!
