Red Shoes and Kisses

Wet Shoes and Kisses beneath its rain soaked blush lust’s seething humid crush hides beneath this cone of lies stolen moments love decries no happy ending to this tryst wet shoed squish of fading kiss sad red umbrella no Cinderella ©10/31/2018 for – The Red Umbrella Poetry Contest sponsor – Eve Roper
