Nette Onclaud Poet Light Verse

Seriously Bewildered

Although the scent of  laughter flows
Into  my wind-swept breath ,
I hesitate the call of his rugged charm
As   violin notes serenade temptation’s play
To crawl upon my luscious  flesh    igniting
Evening's spice of an earthy maleness …    I quiver.

While moonshine drapes the porch-light's view,
He pulls me nearer in warm embrace
Fondling lines of my glistened back--
How in slow-fire  drift, I claim effort
To regain awareness from this  hazy trance.

In a hush   flush, I gently leave   bewildered
Denying our first plunge with a  ‘ no, not yet’…

But seriously , in the brink of  hunger and  craving,
My  raw instinct pleaded to utter ………’yes.’

James Inman February 5, 2017 at 2:45 AM A sensuous write with a heavy sigh ending. My admiration for the strength of women who keep us from venturing into situations that we may ultimately live to regret. On the other hand...

Frederic Parker January 26, 2017 at 5:37 PM Beautifully done ..I think from reading this you should listen to Gato Barbieri on sax playing Europa...
