Gypsy Eyes

The pierce, the flame of gypsy eyes, that roam about your cheeks aflame, that throb at knees. The negligee reveals bride’s honeycomb — a poetry of bees, posthumously. Recover not from burn of jealous lips — Soft greed of ruby smooth, the tender slide, the way she moves - compare to buoyant ships — they trim your sails, so succulent and wide. You must come down to earth — the dock awaits its berth. Noncompliant lovers doth crash against the water’s edge with crazy eights. It’s much too soon to squash its tease and splash. Her eyes astir — their closed next to your heart. The wild rose of her hair — your counterpart. 2/28/2020
