The Thought of You

The Thought of You Alone in her room she poses to stare In her spherical mirror devoid of all clothes Her lithe body strides over to pick up her dress And drapes it against her admiring his gift Her disheveled hair emblazoned in rows A tendriled tiara , a queen de la vie Unassumed beauty and a pert smile to charm Eyelashes that flutter revealing her eyes Of hazel that glow and blend with her hair Her transparent dress embedded in foils That glow from within when her heart rate will rise He has been blessed with the love of his life She entered his sun and his joy shineth bright She Sits Alone Contest Sponsored by Eve Roper August 6, 2017

Hi Andrea: Thank you. I read about transparent dresses and I had to place it in a poem.

Hi Victor: I'm pass the point of sensuality and I see the poem in a poetic light. It is really an expression of youth ,beauty inspired by the painting and of course she is alone.
