Mason-Dixon Line

dividing, between north and south
by a wide belt of leather
is drawn an imaginary Tangent line
called the Mason-Dixon

close your eyes and wander
you won't need GPS
let your lips and hands roam free
and discover many delights

follicles smell of magnolias in bloom
just like the Mississippi trees
see the pleasure in my eyes
as green as Carolina seas

savor all of my kisses
dripping Virginia maple sugar
slide your hand down these long limbs
as soft as Arkansas cotton

juices flowing sweetly
that taste of Georgia Peach
come and explore these treasures
waiting, but within your reach

A lovely Poem ! I am always intriged by the Mason Dixon line a sort of eccentric folly but so evocative and important in the Civil War.The folly part probably comes from Mason & Dixon who were Brits.
