Anna-Marie Docherty Poet Free verse

High Tea

As the clouds bring darkness nearer
and the day draws in 
I’ll wait for you as promised
Under the ark of love

Where I’ll set you a tray of your warm tea nectar
On a table – clothed for my prince
Enticing to soothe away
those quarrels passed between us

Flickering candle light dances
Moody shadows melting
Temptation’s lure 
Will wrestle away all trace of anger

Your high classed long legged Lolita
Sexily styled to seduce in red
Attentitively tuned to taking time
Frustratingly waits while you take phone call

Caroline Cécile Delacroix December 11, 2009 at 8:05 PM Interesting write, quite romantic, but to take someone's misgivings away due to quarrels, sincerity is the most important. By enticing, tempting and seducing, you might take his frustrations away, but not necessarily his misgivings, and if he takes phone calls while being with you so intimately, I'd be questioning his real feelings. That's what crossed my mind when I read your poem. Please keep your eyes open. Thanks for sharing and for your comments on mine. Be well, Caroline.
