Paul Callus Poet Verse

Nighttime Musings

Through the louvered window
The moonlight slips in furtively
Barring her flawless suntanned skin
Musky fragrance pervades the air
Stirring the mind with anticipation
Mellow sensual intoxication.

Timothy Hicks February 16, 2016 at 12:27 AM Very vivid and sensual. I like how you perceive moonlight "slipping in", almost like a thief, and that your musings allude to something more ... much enjoyed. Paul Callus February 16, 2016 at 11:48 AM Thank you for enjoying, Timothy; it was meant to be sensually suggestive, but never crossing boundaries. ~ Regards // paul
