Notes About The Poem

Written September 27 2026 for contest Wilderness of Want sponsored by Ink Empress

Disrobing Heart

I beseech the sun to undress the stars
In the same manner you disrobe hearts
Inspiring indigo pulse to dance runaway 
Carrying cranberry cries yellow yesterday

Exposed by charm your whimsical words
I’m like a feather in your arms like birds
Riding romantic breeze unlimited heights
Purple passion coloring days and nights

High as a red kite I’m destined to swoon
Emerald eyes hypnotized by light of moon
As a night flower power in your blue bloom 
I lay with you hours as we cradle and spoon

As hot as lava you stir me from within
I am white paper ready to receive black pen
Words fall like rain despite night or day
Forever promising you’ll never go away
