Sandra Adams Poet Free verse

Seduced

Today I find
yesterday's essence
still tarries within my mind

I try and wrap myself
in thoughts of you
to regain warmth
from November's wind

the trees 
are less blushed than I
as they stand naked
from this weathered touch

I feel you
in a winded breath
like a tongued whisper
against bare flesh

the lake
mirrors my reflection
as I smile back
through its ripples
as if fingered
by the soft caress 
of your hands

I can see the sun
paint passion's red
across the sky
I get lost in the depths
of you within mind
and climax
between the folds
of this day

John Watt February 21, 2020 at 1:56 PM Sandra, this one is sensual yet understated. I love your use of nature in describing these intimate thoughts: the naked trees, the winded breath, the lake's ripples, the sun painting passion on the sky. Pure mastery ~ congrats! Sandra Adams February 21, 2020 at 10:03 PM thank you so much John, my muse seems to love nature as a metaphor :)

Paul Callus February 21, 2016 at 3:10 PM I was not sure what to find after reading the title, but I was struck by the flowing softness and mellow feelings; of course, it hinges its beauty on the romantic, sensual and seductive; lovely content, with a stress on the final stanza. #7 ~ Regards // paul

Liam Mcdaid November 20, 2013 at 7:13 AM very beautifully crafted piece Sandra Adams November 20, 2013 at 8:30 PM thank you Liam :)

Mark Peterson November 20, 2013 at 12:30 AM Mesmerizing and seductive. Part of me is glad it ended when it did, but a bigger part of me wishes it had carried on a little longer. Sandra Adams November 20, 2013 at 8:29 PM well thank you Mark...it had to end after it climaxed... actually when my muse first started with it, it ended sooner, then I came back to it a little later in the day and reworked a few lines and it grew a little... :)

Andrea Dietrich November 19, 2013 at 9:06 PM wowowow, Sandy. I think you have written several I have not seen lately? This is SO GOOD. Is it for the seductive contest? What I like about your poetry is that the lines are the perfect length for free verse. I do not enjoy long lines (like I sometimes use in free verse) I admire how you can do them just the right way!! Sandra Adams November 20, 2013 at 8:26 PM Thank you Andrea...I penned it from inspiration and wasn't sure about entering it or not...I may since it seems fitting...hugs :)
