Sizzling hot and sticky.

A hot sweltering sticky humid evening
Heat clings and hangs in the stagnant air
Almost too hot and stifling to bear
Floods of silver wet ovaline beads
Perspire and exude from every opened pore
Trickle and slide in small ravines
Skin soaked and shines and glistens
Under subdued ambient lamp light
Darker varied shades and tones
Paint and cast shadowy patches
Upon contours crevices and folds

The night when chocolate and vanilla
Eclipse-like lovers' lips
Melt and merge into one
Deliciously delectable
Honey sweet tasty and succulent
And perpetually morish
Licking the bowl clean

The dawn breaks 
The last remnants of last night's cloak of darkness
Clears and teardrop-sticky dew evaporates
Dried by the stretching rays 
Of a warming newly birthed morn

The hen stretches her wings
And clucks
The cockerel croaks
As the stifling heat has now gone
And morn cools down.
