Mercy

Three lines poems.

                                                          MERCY

I found a red scarf near your door,

I put my face into the scarf.

I could smell the scent your pale skin......

I knew the heartbreak hotel often,

was the sweetest tasting wine ever.

I wanted more and I am willing to taste the bitter after-taste.....

Hot damns, she was so fine,

she had the Devil eyes and the voodoo kiss.

She painted my dreams dark and I was hell-bound....

I wrote on her bare back poetry of love.

I traced her rose bush tattoo from calf to upper back.

I whispered to her. You are my endless storm...

She wanted to show me mercy,

walking toward the door with her sweet smile alive and well.

I begged for more and she returned.

Yes, I agree with Jacob's assessment dear Coyote. You paint a passionate image with such deft brushstrokes in this poem. The sensuous, sinuous line of your thoughts-"I wrote on her bare back poetry of love.
I traced her rose bush tattoo from calf to upper back.
I whispered to her. You are my endless storm..."
So glad she showed you mercy in her return...

[Coyote Poetry]

Thank you dear Annette. Endless storms, we do need my friend.
