Raw Sienna

Just a nonsense love poem

Sienna kissed tones:
You are raw, earthy,
Gentle and solid
Skin, eyes, hair, lips...

Skin, the color of
Burnt caramel.
Warm, sticky
With our sweat.

Eyes like wet leaves,
Or coffee beans.
Boring holes
Straight into my heart.

Hair, the color of
Burning logs.
A pleasure
To run my hands through.

Lips like the
Deepest wine.
Crushed berries,
In the summertime.

I really enjoyed the first stanza as well, This is amazing.

I love the first stanza. The penultimate stanza uses very interesting imagery. The idea of hair as flames is always a very evocative picture in my mind. Good write.
