Ode to Joy

Ode to Joy

A Poem by John Alexander McFadyen

Ode to Joy

To me you are the colour white,

the purest of virgins,

with one foot here on earth

and the other in heaven.

You are the brightest star

that I have ever gazed upon

in my long night’s sky.

You are the perfumed wind

carrying pine scents

and cooling my tortured, sleepless mind.

You are the sweetest melody

seeping sultry and hypnotic

from the saxophone’s deep throat.

You are chaste and crystal clear,

your pale skin deliciously divine,

and you are the most tender woman

I have ever loved.

Even your words are honey drenched

with the honesty of pain

and child-like ethereal hope

upon their lips.

That your breath touches all close to you

is a blessing from God,

and I long for it's feathered caress

soft against my neck

as I cradle you close.

I envisage your sweet and perfect breast

cupped in my palm as we kiss,

of the unwrapping of two bodies

united in a deep desire

for one another’s promise,

and the dream that we both share.

You're killing me softly John, not uttering another word, not one word!

You are the sweetest melody
seeping sultry and hypnotic
from the saxophone’s deep throat

Okay I adore those lines...................You're something else, I'd say what's under that kilt of yours but I'm trying to be a lady. :)
