Sweet Wanderer

Your tongue is a wanderer,

leaving sparks.

This flesh is not the same

after you have traveled

over these peaks and valleys.

What is it about you

that leaves my skin softer?

What is it about this meshing,

that makes me forget who I am?

My skin is no longer my own,

for when I touch myself,

it is only you that I feel...

lingering in the places you long to dwell.

One good reason to have a long distance relationship, I guess. This is gloriously sensual, Cheryl. I love it. Thank you for posting to our group.

A marvelous sensual trip. Outstanding!
Cheryl W. May 4, 2009, 10:13am EDT
Thank you for reading and commenting, my friends...:) I've been working on writing a collection of poems that are sensual or erotic, but not so much so that they require a flag. Quite a challenge!

Your use of "wanderer" to refer to touch on your personal "landscape" is excellent. "Wanderer" also has connotations of passing through, so there is a affecting sense of longing. I don't get where "sparks' comes in, however. It is a cul-de-sac metaphor here.
Cheryl W. May 4, 2009, 10:29am EDT
Thank you, Chris...."Sparks" can remain long after the "wanderer" has passed through...or so has been my experience....:) That is why sparks seemed to be the only word that seemed right here for me...
