Kisses made of stars, trail down your neckMy lips send fire, to burn through your cold exterior, towards a burning sunMy hands reach for the warmth of you, the depths you keep hiddenI feel your fire, lava flowing beneath the surfaceI want to set it free, let your heat sear into my skinYour lips part,Continue reading “Kisses Made of Stars”

Snow Day
Cold as a witch’s teat The phrase never made sense to meBut the white powdery snow made for a pretty sceneWhite as a lamb’s woolI suppose if you kept it insideThe snow lay upon the ground like a baby’s blanketQuiet as a church mouseThe winter landscapeMuted by flakes of snow piled one upon the otherEverythingContinue reading “Snow Day”
Ain’t No Country Song
My gosh I hate countryNo disrespect to manGive me HurtI’ll listen to him then.I’m locked up in these prison wallsA man and his guitarI’m locked up in a country songAnd they just ran off with my dogThey got them drawlin’ And bending them stringsThat man over there on the pianoPlaying in a minor keyI’m lockedContinue reading “Ain’t No Country Song”
SMILE
Upturned lips, an expression of joy.A mask for those who in private we scorn,Turned upside down it becomes a frown.In rictus, it is horror.C’mon pretty show us your -I’ve got the camera, so flash us;Cheesy though it may be This was for a dVerse prompt: Just sling us a poem of precisely 44 words (notContinue reading “SMILE”

Not you.I need to go but not from youBut because I need you. Desperately. A Taste of Stew Erotic Stories Collection AContinue reading “I Need to Go”
In Between The Holidays I Came To Kiss You
In between the holidays I came to kiss you,When time stops in this strange period in between.I want to be where my heart can be true.Your lips on mine linger like spilled wine,A drunken moment that I’d like to last into the new year.Days compacted into just this time seems just fine.Tomorrow’s request for meContinue reading “In Between The Holidays I Came To Kiss You”
