Subtle, the charged air
scented in clean-
braced against soft fabric
lifts tendrils
hues of life..
Threatening, like the power
of the skies..
so opaque, in ravishing sweep
shatters the illusions
of perceptive nature
upon bent brow..
Intrepid gaze follows
the line of ivory-
goosebumps that creep
even as she is lost,
her thoughts masked
by nimbus suspension..
craving warmth
through tide's touch
gentle pull tugs at foam.
silken seams lift,
taunting and bold
when desire dawns..
