Nude Musings

Like the full moon
I sleep nude
Feeling less than new
Yet quite comfortable in my skin
Despite fuchsia flaw
My inner child claws
At any chance to be lost
Like lavender flowers of the wall
Blending in the lesser of sins
For one to lose oneself amoungst the in
Crowd and not feel left out yet how
Do dandelions withstand the windy
Shouts of the other boisterous bulbs
By riding on blue breeze
And kissing the tree leaves
Landing in foreign garden grasses
And melting like molasses 
Into a new world garden
With a hopeful heart sharpened
To the singing melody of destiny.

We need more of these types of poem. Human skin is such a wonderful thing that has the power to heal itself. Most yearn to cuddle up to the skin of another on a cold winter night and maybe a bonus perhaps if one does not fall asleep first as warm and cozy has that effect. Research with few clothes or none at all gets better sleep. Liked the way you melded seemingly random thoughts into a poem that flowed beautifully. Regards David in NZ.
