Lips

A Red Rose her mouth An upturned curve a pout Two waves that rise The shape of her lips She holds loves confluence At the very tips Beautiful thoughts That burn below Releasing a kiss Nice and slow Layers of nectar On two petals A scented taste Which unsettles. 1.2.2021 A Sensual Poem.

i really liked this little rhyming poem, economical with the language but clever, i like how you built a poem around that single image..i almost read a double meaning in some of the lines but maybe it's my naughty mind haha (i love double meanings in a poem) congrats on your win in my contest! :)
