Short Enticingly Poems

Red roses divine

Offered with delight

Some often pink or

Enticingly white, a

Satisfying sight.

Enticingly juicy
Melting on the burning 
Lips of passion
Stretching tongues to lick
But soured drops long left over
Icings of deadly venoms
Ooh greedy zealots
Gulping to stupor
Concoctions for all such gluttons...

Caresses on his back made him quiver.
Enticingly, she said, “Love, come hither.”
Warm fingers rubbed his spine.
Her kisses felt so fine.
An Indian princess was his giver.

She likes flowers. She likes galleries and art.  She likes bookstores and museums, and walks in the park.  She’s enticingly odd, her countenance unflawed, I’m ooohed and I’m awed.  I gotta tell ya – she is one cool broad....

While suspended above reality

This choice I had to make

A few more seconds in slumber

So reluctant I was to awake

I settled for cocooned bliss

To content to be concerned

Oblivion beckoned enticingly

My life was thus adjourned....

The facebook ad popped up
 nothing fancy, seasonal stuff
and there it was a bathing suit
 it looked so enticingly cute.
I pondered me within its wrappings
 envisioned how my body in its trapping,
protrusions of my bosom and my rump
 alas, I'm an apple, round and plump....

~Mon Amour~


             I adore my lover! 
             So enticingly, bubbly,
             A spiritual heart!
             A philosophical Greek.
             When he dances, the stars sing.

YOU ARE

the epitome of
intrigue. An
addiction for my
needs. A puzzle
of perplexing
shades. Unique
enticingly brief.
I love you. Hate
that you 
frustrate me. Find
my Achilles. Both
 my nemesis my 
disease.
Still…
you ease
the fatigue
of
mortality

I am an old porch
Leaning in on a bent back
Weathered and rotting

Aha! Something enticingly fun
comes into view
turning me into my butterfly self.

Orange and dotted, 
flitting among the lilacs, 
diving in for a taste,
enjoying life once again.

I am distracted by a worm
Instantly irritated and mad,
turning into a mud puddle....

White Jasmine
pure white soft jasmine
birth of a new tender love
thorns silently sleep

behold this glory
that enticingly lures
some fun loving bee
tasting delicious nectar
green danger cunningly lurks

true love never had a chance
green thorns blew their prickly horns
old black shadows danced along
white jasmine turned red

Beneath the cobalt veil nothing blows.
Lying vast but still, a cloth of silken black.
Only an amiable ripple articulates its presence.

Imposing contours loom purposely
Declaring their magnificence
And my insignificance.

Illuminations pin pricked into the veil above.
More than you could count
Even with a lifetime given.

A Prince of unquestionable pedigree.
Enticingly fragile.
Dauntingly resolute....

l saw a note in the wind 
caught up in the fencing 
could it possibly be...? 
was it what I was sensing?

determined to have it 
I gazed up admiringly 
it was out of my reach 
fluttering enticingly

I spied a big number too! 
I was feeling quite heady 
my mind was in overdrive 
I had spent it already 

so it pains me to say
I was terribly mistaken 
instead of cash I retrieved 
a parking citation...

So what is love?
A kiss, a touch, a state of mind;
A fickle glance, a poet’s line.
An unending pit of shame
Into which sordid passions rain.
A “forever” love I’ll never claim.

But wait…
Who comes and passes by?
He stops and looks back, enticingly shy.
He beckons, I follow~~~
Watch out!  The Pit!!
Too late…

I
    fall
           to
                 meet
                             the
                                     bottom....

Her songs come and make love to me 
each note stroked so enticingly 
they twist and they twirl 
engulfing her pearl 
I reside deep in Calliope 

Entwined we are starved by the night 
two souls that are holding on tight 
'low passionate skies 
entranced by her eyes 
I make her my lunar delight 

Tongue tips and teeth that desire 
true love that's burning on fire 
stare down our sure death 
both gasping for breath 
this heat can't get much higher...

Summer has past through
its hot sultry days of sun
Now slowly the leaves turn
glistening in hues of brown.

The air sharpens and cools
as the nights draw in faster.
Grains glimmer ready now
for plucking from their ears.

Rich scents of sun ripened fruit
hangs in the still air enticingly.
The smells of lunch mingling
to the heavily scented bouquet.

Icy fingers of winter awake
impatient to do their worst.
Soon the lands will lie
under a blanket of snow....

As she walked thru limitless pain
Her body contorted and old
She ached for his divine grace
And freedom from binding chains
Her soul clearly broken
Into tiny glittering points
And dark night enticingly beckoned
To pass into limitless sky
And as day blurred into dusk
Her soul took its flight
Among the burning starry way
She at last found what she lacked
A limitless ocean of love and peace
That He held in his arms
