Your sapphire eyes
seem to paralyze
and my heart skips a beat or two
To feel your lips
with my fingertips
is all I desire to do

The scent of your hair
delivers traces of pear
and maybe some tangerine, too
Stand near me please
as I wait for a breeze
to take in a breath of you

I am not remiss
in my desire to kiss
your soft and delicate skin
I'll pull your body to mine,
our shapes will combine
and we'll float away in the wind

And here's me wavin' back to you Midnite. I'm back from a 7-year hiatus on this board, but even then, I think I only posted a few poems/songs. But I felt like I needed an outlet again. So here I be

I enjoyed this light and teasing poem.
Very refreshing, yet sweetly romantic.
