Scrumptous Birthday Cake (For "dreamy Desserts" Contest Sponsored By: Linda-Marie Bariana)
(AKA - "Becca Baked My Birthday Cake")

Surprise!  Strawberry scents permeated the air.
Mountains of creamy pink lured fingertips.
Bewitching chocolate with fresh fruit inside, 
Luscious and succulent tempted watery lips.

Enlivened young children could hardly wait.
Tiny little fingers did not hesitate.
Dipping in the icing, a lip-smacking delight.
To...

Empty Nourishment
A porcelain bowl upon the table
waits, in colored beauty,
as a stomach sits to gnaw
upon its filigreed edge,
where an artist once painted
pastel fruit, so delectably.

Emerald vines,
sweeping across delicate expanse,
textured in their stillness,
inviting one's imagination
to simply taste.

But what good is such vision,
when it fills naught but eyes
and...

Premium Member Seduction
Small talk
Body Talk
Flirtatious glances
Beguiling smiles
Warm electricity
Passion tingling
Eyes that tease
Torment and tantalize
Desire on every breath
On every quiver of the lip
Rhythm of bodies craving
That erotic embrace
The delectably sublime
Act of seduction

Premium Member The Fourth Kingdom
“Fair fa’ your honest, sonsie, face
Great Chieftain o’ the Puddin-race!”
“Address To A Haggis”, Robert Burns, 1786.
(Keeper o’er the Fourth Kingdom)

Robert, Robert, Fourth Kingdom
Gate Keeper.
No Telestial glory
Befits the poet deeper!

Wherefore is thy legacy
Robert Burns, regretfully
Wherefore is thy Haggis?
Thy Puddin’ flees before thee.

Thy Hippopotami give birth
Purple, purple,...

Premium Member Dusk Descending On the Shore
Dusk descending on the shore -
My eyes engorge themselves on orchid and wisteria swirls 
which frost a blue-cake cotton-candy sky.

Peacefully, deeply, I draw in breath to savor
that special flavor of the sea. Its salty tang
delectably has mingled with the lime of my man's cologne.

Suddenly,the screech...

Painting Dragons In One Stroke
“Painting Dragons in One Stroke” 


Beware of angels 
with big guns
falling for you 
they lose their wings
it’s like clipping nails 

they grow back again
eventually

the sun shine comes out to play
the rain springs a well 
in the heart good for dipping
sharp fountain pens bloodied
swords brush a...

Love, Not Really
Love you came with a tickle
from my nape down to my feet,
like fresh fruit from the vine, 
you tasted delectably sweet.
A brush of softest feather,
blood coursing through my veins,
love you taught me your lessons,
studious, I’m glad you came.
In the heated glow of morning,
in deep ebony...

Night Breeze
The quiet breeze is gently blowing this spring night.
Wonderful twilight, dancing colors,
Trees bloom, unfolding the fresh born leaves,
Spreading it's spring time umbrella. 

The air is delectably highlighted with grills meats galore, 
smokey fire pits of mesquite, hickory and maple burn. 
All these sensory projections twine...

Premium Member Signature Scent
Come to a place of enlivening comfort.
In this exotic garden, lift your lungs. 
Vanilla beans dangle from the vining orchid. 
A likeness of birthday cake baking
awakens adrenaline, 
as exciting and familiar as friends,
as smooth and creamy as silk.
Rustle sandalwood leaves between your hands.
Explore the bark's...

Premium Member Mingling Majesty

Mesmerizing magnetism, mere mingling perfection;
melodic, magical murmurs melt like molten sweet confection.
Pleasing, playful, palpable perfection in pure pleasures; 
teasing, tasting, tantalizing... thrilling, tangible treasures. 

Delectably delightful, deliriously drenched desire;
effectual expression electrifyingly fuels the fire.
Fidgety, frolicking fingers flee to frame affection’s face;
feverous fascination fused with everlasting...

Blackmail
I hope you turn magenta and hyperventilate
over the lines I wrote for you.
They’re delightfully exotic
and delectably erotic,
and I swear, I only mention
your name a time or two....

I Have Seen the Stars Fallen
I Have Seen The Stars Fallen

  The pageants veiled, and gnawed at gladness,
  As prism from far inter-stellar space;
  And they eclipse and the luminosity fa’e over the
  phase,
  And the pursuit of phantasy had sold out to gravitation;

Premium Member A Dream Within Reality
It's only a dream
sweet and sensuous
delectably delicious
tantalizing and tempting to the taste
oh, to indulge in opulence
to revel and feel
the surreal
but...
it's only a dream

Only a dream within reality
such luxuriant love
is what legends are made of
embellished every one
exaggerated expression
but legends languish
in the ordinary 
no, it can't be...
