connected

heat
shimmers
vibrates
in the distance

insects buzz
self- important
with mysterious
missions

geese
glide by
graceful
feathered ships

patrolling the harbor
where sweat trickles
between my breasts
and thighs

a fevered breeze
caresses
woos
seduces

heat radiates
from the dock

warmly
welcomes
my repose

bakes
my backside
where it connects
to the wood

eyes close
against the sun
white
bright
light dapples

vague
silhouettes play
tease
my lids

legs dangle
wilted
flaccid
limp

feet plunge
submerge
disappear

toes dance
cavort
frolic
in cool, clear water

find relief
from heat


Author notes

As I sat on the dock, I felt the connection! It's always there. I just have to get still enough to feel it.

Please tell me what you think

    I love this!!! It is just so full of wonderful wording and images. The flow is nice, even. And I like how you have connected the simple things together - and done so well in describing them!
    Too many lines in this that I like to list them all!
    Love it!!

    full of great imagery. if one closes their eyes they can see the images and i must say this had a nice teasing, sensual feel to it too well done. be well and be blessed

    Very Good

    I like the insects on undisclosed missions.

    "the connection! It's always there" - Yes!

    heat waves

    holy micro vines when the sun melts our vision...this piece seems to flitter like heat waves off of pavement, out in the distance, away from the cool confines of molecular hemmoraging, dock squatting, and otter pop sucking... plug in and turn on!

    I could visulize trying to cool off

    I was able to visualizing a woman trying to cool off from the summers blistering heat. What a woderful way to keep cool. I had no problem in understanding the content of the poem. A great write!.
