I Don't Do Crazy

I Don't Do Crazy

Over the top

Accusatory

180 degree rotations

Not at all

what I want from my summer

Let's just take a step back

recall what was good

and go on our separate

merry

ways.

You had me

until the chain was broken.

Glitter on the floor mat

a reminder

of broken vows,

failed endeavors.

I see now

how foolish I was,

what my friends

attempted to tell me.

No time for this,

I have other plans.

You have written yourself

out of my itinerary.

Be well.

Just not with me.

Dawn

Dawn

Morning light

breaks thru

last night's storm clouds

You sigh,

roll over,

and the sheet

leaves your body.

I drink in your beauty

with my eyes

silently

adoring you

listening to your

soft, slow breathing

I move stealthily

my lips

trail along your

delicate curves

tasting the salty

remnants of last night's

exertions

We matched the

Gods' exhortations

with our own

collapsing before dawn

exhausted

I recall gathering you near,

then nothing 'til now

Love's amnesia

erasing any dreams

I prefer this

waking pleasure

until you rouse.

Mangos

Mangos

I offer her praise

describing her attributes

calling her:

          Gorgeous

          Beautiful

          Pretty

I adorn her

with my words

as does the fine chain

about her neck

dangling a pendant

that draws my eyes

to her exquisite throat

She demurs my accolades,

rolling her eyes,

only grudgingly accepting

my gestures and words

Her mellifluous voice

encourages me

to demonstrate

my adoration

with

          a gentle kiss

          a tender touch

          a more passionate nibble

at her silken flesh

As my fingers caress

her desire becomes evident

A more sensual application

of lips to pale skin

leads to encouragement

yet

I proceed unhurriedly

savoring her treasures

imagining the pleasures

that await

Someday and soon
