Evergreen Pleasures and Lily Pad Wishes

Evergreen pleasure and lily pad wishes Here on the eve of an autumn undressing Ribbons of silk rustle soft to the ground Breathless desires of nature’s true calling Beauty invades when there’s no one around Behind a tree as I witness enchantment Leaves filter light of a shimmered moonbeam Now as my heart beats in whispered attraction All that I see plays a part in this dream Curves framed in stardust aglow in the heavens Willowy flesh in a satin like hue Eyes formed of fantasy’s lone inspiration Sensual thoughts ‘pon a midnight laced view Delicate lines drift angelic perceptions Passion ignites as the warm breeze now flows Evergreen pleasures and lily pad wishes Follow my gaze now wherever she goes Down to the water a shadow is moving Gracefully floating the banks of the shore Skin wet and glistening here in the moonlight Hard as it is I cannot stand much more Then in her eyes I now see my reflection Beyond a smile just as bright as the sun Beckoning me with a wave of her fingers Love comes to call as the long day is done Good night Soupers
Hey, skinny dipping in November…it could happen. : )

- A beautiful poem, Chris :) - In Norway many bathe all year (maybe not naked) ... but they make holes in the ice and bathe every day all winter (my sister does it ... in Lofoten - far north in Norway :))) - however, no lily pad ... but in a freezing ocean :) - hugs // Anne-Lise :)
