Cherry Thief

Cherry Thief
___________________
 Dear Cherry,

Ontop of my shake you set in red glow,
you looked so delicious and vibrant,
I wanted to take you between my lips 
and taste your sweet juices. But then, you 
were gone. Before I knew it, someone took
you, and he held you between his perched kisser.
I watched as he savored you tender moistness with
delight. The last time I saw you, you were gone
with a swift gulp of his greedy throat. Goodbye
beloved fruit, you were so quickly taken that
we didn't have much time, to even say hello.
Perhaps we shall meet again one day, and 
when that day comes...my husband wont be 
near you...

(LOL..just a fun little poem)

Jslambert Mister Roboto July 3, 2014 at 12:55 AM talk about a metaphor. hell of a juxtaposition and damn my eyes for bulging as I read this. It truly is a 'Moving Picture', which by the way, is a rare triple entendre. Jessica Thompson July 3, 2014 at 8:15 PM Thank you JSL, so nice to read all your kind comments about my work. I am so glad you enjoyed this piece. I will come by soon as read yours as well. Take care my friend, Jess :)
