THE VIRGIN WORDS

THE VIRGIN WORDS

I can't wait to devour them
To deflower them
thevirgin words on a page
combined harvesters of truth
hidden lies in disguised in
oratory delights to furnish flights
fanciful and young, flowering
fragrant on the tongue.
Bathe in the residue in  the fading light
they burn like wax on winter nights.
A delicious treat,savour the taste
All words are precious,leave nothing to waste.

Use them ...don't abuse them.

Great use of words throughout the poem. Very nicely written.

Precisely. Well said. A couple of pieces you might find interesting of mine (in relation to this piece) are "Quantity vs. Quality" and "On Writing Love Poems". Check them out sometime when you get a chance. Your's is going in my favorites. Love it.
