her husband made her
a beautiful scented bath…
pity it’s outdoors!

Sun Bathing

There is this brilliant gem hanging on high,
radiating down upon me from a clear blue sky.
It takes me back and into a time
when laying in fields, on river banks was sublime.

On a spit I sit, going around, browning under the sun.
Not a care, a...

Beyond the dark trees
Robins bathe in the sand
Watched by an eagle...

Tender pats of a grateful mum
Saved from deaths door and sure scorching
The heat and ash were so close to overpowering
When a savior reached out and lifted us to safety....

How can I say thankyou, you are my hero?
I have not words but an overflowing heart
I give...

Breathe laden islands rise and fall
beneath the steam graced surface of clear water,
capped with rosettes, red-brown, silken, warm,
beaded with water running in rivers
down mountainsides of flesh, puddling,  
in the darken depression of navel.

The water rises, about kneecaps
pristine and alabaster in hue.
Angular shoulders hug the...

Bathing in the Nectars of Love

Let your love fall now that I may wallow
Let the tears drip of your inner essence
Entranced by the nectar that I swallow
As I may engulf and taste your presence

Let your beating heart keep me company
The emptiness that entraps my being
A...

The soft humming sound of the cooling fan seeps through the crevices in her head, escorting a maze runner within her. She wishes to put an end to it. Both the fan and the maze runner.  Yet, she requires both, much like oxygen, to sleep in...

 The steaming sun rays,
 Beating against your green coat;
 Prickly as a thorn....

Surrounded by the city fuss
   where throngs of lonely people live;
each day their lives superfluous 
   while trying hard as hopes misgive,
      and years sift quickly through life’s sieve.

A peaceful pace is what I seek

Am bathing!

Collecting delightful effigies
from great heights imposing joy   
keeping lathered many notions.

Only paradise quietly relaxes somehow 
the unconditional, variant ways, 
xenial yang zygomas....

When the bikini replaced the bathing suit
They were brief, but also rather chic
But the briefness was, nonetheless, 
Still sufficient to cover both cheeks...

~The wave breaks
gently, caressing
over and over
it strokes
the rocky shore.
The shore
trembles
wet
ready
silvery
but mute.
The storm
glowers
angering the sea:
back-talk
leads to back
hands,
and the shore
maudlin
retreats.~

Large ~
boulders
break with the tides
of time, to slivered
shards all glistening wet.
golden in a new dawn
once whole now
 broken by the tide
still there's
beauty,
yet.~

Star berry soap suds
midnight moon as my witness
River skin shoulders
shivering a quiet cool
lapsing into liquid pools~...

Golden brown outside,
Necessity some believe;
Attractive skin tone.

O Cowherd, my fellow cowherd
Let's quickly drag the river walk
Fun walk with the wash cattle
Take the bamboo tube, and charcoal.
Look quick the sun came out midday
Does buck tilak on forehead
Bring mustard oil, to nails.
Don't forget, the calabash of garland and brinjal.
O Cowherd, my fellow cowherd
