Sweet divine nectar...
taste buds savouring each drop:
king coconut drink....

snake
sibilant serpent
scaled sun seeker
soundlessly sensing; savouring; slithering;
striking...

Tantalising taste on tongue,
whilst savouring a draft beer
heightens but we stop at one,
because we’re not young!...

The amiable knife
demeans it might
schizophrenic in sight
takes the plunge
Savouring the blight
lures the fight
He waited too long
serendipitous sight
For I stole the knife....

Caress divine surging forth from within ~
Mirrors bliss bubbles bursting on our skin

Seeking nothing, the receptor stands still ~
Savouring nectar that does overspill

Feel the rhythm of heart bliss beat
Suffusing us from head to feet
As a receptor of God’s grace
We wish to meet Him face to face
Savouring soma nectar sweet

Velvet twilight softly spreads,
in a sky weaving black threads.
Moonlight beams as lovers play,
passions dance as desires sway.
Lost in whispers of heartbeats,
savouring forbidden treats....

Through that window, strains papa's
Efforts to shut again
Would you, in a bug-eyed pest
This nasty breed let in?
O'ersized besides, for habit
Of cicling annoyance.
A ghoulish end, to live off
Comes savouring its chance....

It was
A body book.
You could read it
without opening the poem.

Savouring
the flavor.
The night was a golden
door to enter.

Into a moon,
and to find the lips of
a hot encounter.
You fall back after a dizzy ride.

Basking in exotic sweet laced scent
        Under the soft sun's glow lambent
    Prance in orchard relishing mangoes succulent
        bunch of monkeys savouring Divine moment

Siphoned light gropes passengers
Hopeful for luminescent hearts,
Arching underneath bombazine drapes
Dusted with passionate legacies
Of original sin and the primogeniture son,
Wicked for nighttime plots savouring
Spicy love, exponential in a vivid darkness....

The darkness of the night
Seeds a world out of sight
Hiding from us the unknowns
Where danger is secretly sown

Do I wait in darkness still
Savouring each moment’s thrill
Or do I scurry seeking shelter
Amid a world of helter-skelter.

Surrendering so sweetly to silent
energies ending enduring embrace.
Sojourning into such solace for peace
where wondrous essences regally reign
relaxing the recesses of the brain.
Regenerating from an aloneness
into inner worlds of our own oneness.

The melody gradually filters
Through my being 
Filling my soul with joy
I go with it savouring, anticipating
It’s genius – no other thoughts enter
Just floating with the melody
Surprised by some discords they startle me
Prepare me for the majesty of sound to come...

Clad in flowing purple
Like a full-bodied
Cabernet Sauvignon
She vanishes into the 
Shadows of the night
While I stand alone, 
Dreamily savouring 
The lingering aftertaste
Of her aromatic kiss.

I want the wind
to sweep me away
to a sanctuary in the sun

A place where I can
swim with the dolphins
and loosen up on a hammock
endlessly savouring Pina Coladas
in a garden of
balmy coconut palms
where the ocean breeze
and saltwater
are parading through
my hair strands...

Joy
oozes…
family
members partake
savouring love’s freedom around blest trust.
Beholding blissful home in picnic sight
parents cheering
glad children
my heart
smiles.

The clouds burst open
With a torrential downpour.
The loud drumming on the rooftop
Heard inside the safety of my bedroom.
Snuggled under the warmth of my duvet,
Flames red in the fireplace,
Soft light of candles burning,
Body relaxed after a tiring day,
Savouring the moment of pure joy and contentment....

Rivulets of crimson blood
Ooze tantalisingly from the gaping wound on her neck
He drinks hungrily, savouring every salty drop
Dracula wraps his black cape around his shoulders
Fleeing in the moonlight to his crypt in the churchyard.

REAPING AND RELISHING SAPODILLA PLUMS

Reaching out towards freshness all ripened,
Holding onto huge branches hovering high,
Not bothered about tan getting deepened,
I hand pluck lush naseberries straight from the sky;
Savouring sweetness with a satisfied sigh.

Missing your kiss 
Savouring what’s left
On my painted red lips
Setting my soul on fire!

You have been away far too long
This is driving me crazy, baby! 
For it is no secret
Nothing is right
When you’re not with me 

I would give you all I have
Including my heart of gold
Just to be with you 
Right now

sacred smells
osmotically permeate
immediacy of consciousness 
which we imbibe gently
in tranquil silence 

memory triggers 
associated
rested

inner polarities 
dance as they like
in which we too delight
partaking of each offering
with prayerful gratitude 
savouring the elixir
surreal, ethereal...

Ringing in the New Year,
Ignites festal cheer.
Sparkling dance floor,
Glasses raise for a toast,
Showers of blessings,
Promises of love,
Youthful exuberance,
Burgeoning wings,
Untrammelled disposition,
Spirits unshaken,
Holidays flamboyant,
Achievements myriad,
Accolades and encomium,
Memories worth savouring rerun....
