The word of desire



The rain
and snow still whisper...
 
As cold wax
the moon waits
to drip slowly
out of the curls of my hair,
to lean out
under my short cut nails,
to dress my bare body
exposed to night’s eyes
lambent to my skin.
The sea of loneliness
arises around me.
I melt
and leak
down your senses.
 
I am nothing
but springtime’s
wild water
eagerly awaiting to flow
along your wide, staunch shores
once again.
I am nothing
but the word of desire,
waiting to explode,
to linger and to live
between your fingers
as the scattered scent
of flowers in bloom.

In a list

Please tell me what you think...

    Yes

    My snow is quite deep but spring is not far off.
    It is however, long overdue for many of us here.
    Always excellent Sonja.
