Strawberries

Red and juicy, 
sensual shape, 
sexual by nature, 
they drip promiscuously 
on my prurient lip.

Tastes of summer, 
girls in flimsy cotton dresses 
flirting shamelessly, 
and sinfully suggesting 
assignations in the park, 
in the darkness, for a lark.

Their flavors captivate, 
and make me ache 
for an intimate embrace.

I never quite looked at a strawberry that way. I love this very male view of them. I wonder what Freud would say about this wonderfully written glimpse into that talented and creative mind of yours. :) (lol) Love and hugs, Robin
