Under the Half Eaten Coconut Moon

desiccated stars
sprinkled crumbs that surround
a half eaten coconut moon
I lick my lips

this ethereal delicacy
above me
calls me to indulge
in a visual feast
to sate my soul

if only you were here...
My love, if only
we'd lie here together
relishing every last bite
and when the last soul crumb was gone
we'd turn our carnal lips
to feed on each other's bodies
indulging in a physical feast
to sate our desires
under a half eaten coconut moon
while those desiccated sprinkled stars twinkle on...

Eileen Manassian July 31, 2017 at 4:37 PM Thanks, Robert. I'm a hopeless romantic. I'm no good at humor. We each have our strong points. :) Appreciate the comment.

Silent One July 31, 2017 at 4:04 PM Oooh... sounds lovelt and sweet.. Eileen Manassian July 31, 2017 at 4:06 PM Thank you, SO. The moon's been on my mind. Today at the beach, we saw a crescent moon in the middle of the day. I found it .... strange. I was floating peacefully and looking at it. I guess it really got to me.
