Semaphores

Semaphores Slippery slopes remain Cooled by the air My palms and fingers Slid inside your dress Running Along your spine Tingled to your neck Converts body I wandered And plundered In the taciturn distance Make you a sea And I your beach Make you a wave And I your crest Make you a castle And I the bricks To stand upon the shore I the wind Whisper its caresses In my hand Impart And hold you Aloft Slippery slopes remain

I like this Colin. There is a great feel to it,in particular in the two quatros. The way that this is structured is great credit and pulls out the language for the reader to savour.

Colin very clever in your metaphore's of love and passion. The women are rejuvenated after reading this. If they are married their husband's are in trouble lol. GBU and your son Michael
