Best Succulent Poems

Do you wish to taste 
the succulent flower 
as she grows, anxious, in the garden? 
Morning’s blush arouses 
her soft pink petals 
and they become warm and moist with dew 
A sweet musky scent fills the air 
It calls to you 
and you cannot resist...

Malodorous tavern’s garret, the codger it accommodates, No more,
Fuzzled in brew, his fuzzy lady, her life she lives to abhor.

Fresh peaches sliced thin
Baked in tantalizing dough
Its aroma draws
Body and soul come
Taste and see
Sweet!  ...

What is to live when you have not experienced real love?
What is to breathe when he wakes me soar like a dove?
How do I keep holding on when voices keep screaming in my head?
Screaming, "It was not meant to be,so just let it go!"
But how...

Is psylently scentered, 
Allure ring and active
Avail able lee absent

Sucks in side whisper rings
Out from beyond with in 
Imagine nation sings

No suck you lent salve
More male meta for
sultry suck you bus

Knows lee shores 
Harbour temp pests
Rock sake red cores

Draws out demons 
Deemed danger rousing

...go ahead...sink your teeth 
into the enameled words

use your tongue to roll 
them from cheek to cheek
feel them budding in your
mouth, the very words of 
your mouth sound rising 
from your jaw up to the

A succulent prime-rib roast

thickly sliced, blood rare,

a baked potato topped with

sour-cream, chopped chives

and melted butter,
 
a gourmet

They grow on 
Short and tall trees
All year long.
Their juice so sweet,
Succulent,
For everyone
Who loves tropical sweetness.

It comes in all sizes
All shapes 
You can have it any way you want
It will make your eyes take a second look
Make your nose eager to inhale its scent
Leave your mouth watering 

When you’re ready come and get it
You surely won’t regret it 
and oh,...

Spring gives life to summer moist heat.
Soul melt, but the breeze gives comfort.
Shower rainbow bath floral scent.

Soaked in pure golden sunrays; sweet.
Suntan tame does not discomfort;
Sense for the lightest of feet spent.

Sensible is nature's heartbeat
Steady and inspire recomfort
So, while flamboyant and content.

Season change and attest...
