I Think of You - At the Edge - 3

A reflection of the coloured pencil drawn sky
skates on the glass smooth surface below it.
While a rebellious group of shades take their positions 
on a glorious stage to express themselves artistically and
I...

i think of you

Wisps of clouds shaped like a palm leaf
fan the winds that stoke the fire
of a randomly sketched sunset.
I...

i think of you

The cool of an ocean breeze 
travels the shadows of this low lit evening.
Caresses my skin like the essence of romance.
Enthralled by the allure of a candle lit sky,
I...

i think of you...

Our French Bakery early mornings.
Café au lait and croissants.
Our freesia soaked baths.
Your mink soft body.
Its milk and honey scent.

As I fall off 
the edge of the world,
I...

i think of you.

Hi Armand. You make use of words to build a lovely and sensuous atmosphere around you; falling off the edge of the world overflows with emotion. #7 You think of her...I think of your capable pen! // paul

I can see those clouds, feel the winds, the sunset sketches itself out like an etch-a-sketch and the smell of those fresh french croissants is overwhelming in this piece. I am awed.
