Clad in a negligee, I hear him whisper, “Come to me.”
Demurely I withdraw, but he rushes to me filled with passion.
Taking me in his arms, he kisses me, setting hearts afire.
A golden leaf, silently falling
Returning to earth that created it earlier
Gently... slowly... breezily 'tis transported
Landing humbly on its side, bowing, submitting
Its end has arrived, it demurely relinquishes
adverbs dress up ordinary verbs
easily, quickly, confidently,
jokingly, suspiciously, cagily,
demurely, purely, delicately,
deliberately, justifiably, undeniably,
jubilantly, whimsically flippantly
they may be my favorite parts of speech
Spring.
The grass
oh so green
grows on the field.
A carpet on the land
resembles green velour.
A blue sky hovers over.
A yellow sun illuminates.
A few white clouds drift quite demurely.
Artist, now’s the time to spread your canvas.
Robert Pettit
Sweet lady,
This evening moon casts an ambient glow
Allowing the innocence you possess to shine through
The virginal smile of youth show demurely upon your face
As the light seems to have captured a particular moment in time
Smile for me, oh dear one, and let me gaze upon the beauty that is you
Nature is a sketch
of the tenuous hold we have
on formidable time.
No season stands immutable -
each an interlude - one to another.
Demurely, summer gives way to Fall.
Bereft of leaves, brittle branches rattle
against a crisp blue sky.
When winter enfolds us all we dream;
the collective dream of spring.
Eight word sketch

Crossing over,
I thought it’d be different
Crossing over,
I thought things would change
Crossing over,
I thought I’d be better
Crossing over,
I fought through the rain
Now looking back,
I see demurely
Now looking back,
I see through the fog
Now looking back,
I see more clearly
Now looking back
—through life’s epilogue
(Villanova Pennsylvania: February, 2016)
She walked into my universe
silently as her lovely smile.
Rarely such beauty is preserved
Bar, perhaps, a Grecian profile:
some alabaster sculptured head
Cold, soulless in a museum
Of a venerable Greek, long dead;
Or maybe an athenaeum
Where I have found her while reading
Looking down at me in the silence
from a vast book-laden shelving.
I overcame my ambivalence
When her face appeared before me
a visage, smiling demurely.
Adagio chased Goddess,
whispering silver soft illusions
sighing to the wind,
eternally sweet carresses,
free ing your mind
with each
warm brown echo.
a voice found
fastened to
buttons.......
falling stars
that would soon
undress
the
golden
moon,
for she has
wrapped
herself
demurely
in the mists,
to hide
her face
from a
lover's
gaze......
we know the sun
has left
a kiss,
upon his own ,
eternal,
slave.
Though tenuous the winds impinge
on late October's brittle fringe,
bereft of August's saffron glow
when brilliant sky did ardent flow
formidable in cyan tinge,
immutable will frost astringe
hot tangerine of summer singe;
no haven for the zeal to go.
Demurely comes first winter's twinge
as last of maple leaves unhinge.
Soon falcons after doves will go
'cross interludes of vestal snow,
while eaves sketch icicles' syringe.

“Delicate” is such a gentle word
Conjures up thoughts of aromas
Of freshly baked bread
Meandering through kitchens
Of years gone by
Simpler times when the world
Witnessed less turmoil
Greeting each other with love
With a friendly smile a tip of the hat
Ladies smiling demurely
Filling the air with a scent
Of lavender conjuring up odours
Thoughts of distant lands
Sweet scents of lavender and lilac
Nothing but a delicate joy
Her
alto
foundation
adds richness to
soprano's ringing
melody with soaring
obbligato overtones,
while diva gets rousing applause
supportive alto smiles demurely
knowing it takes ensemble of voices.
