Poetry In Motion

Our truest life is when we are in dreams awake. - Thoreau

Embrace by Pablo Picaso - Watercolor, 1901 or 1902

in soft, swirling, delicate, blissful wonder

i want to read the poetry of her curves

to learn each line by heart

scents and feelings bookmarking each and every part

i want her flesh to merge with mine

gazing into the deep, mysterious, alluring pools of her eyes

tracing each and every impression of her art

fingers running through fields of flowing hair

a seed tossed like a wishful, pointed dart

synchronized in heavenly volition, no thought or trace of flesh asunder

deep moans of heaven's thunder

thumbed pages of our souls and verses being a damned, good start

Author's Note

"I love you not as something private and personal, which is my own, but as something universal and worthy of love which I have found." - Thoreau
