The barren sun dries my skin.
I thirst for your touch.
Since we met, I can't turn off my grin.
The wind whispers your desire.
My lips throb against your neck
And my hips are constantly on fire.
I say a prayer and plead for the waves to still.
The quiet sea stands in adoration.
My bosom quivers in anticipation
Every flick of your tongue
is an escape to an alternate reality.
Is this just a game for you or merely lust?
I ponder by the shore under a shadowy moon.
Our supple bodies drought ceased,
we become pliant evermore.

Thanks, Mandy. lol I don't flag my work because I think it's tasteful enough. Your candor is much appreciated.

Thank you, Dawn.
Sounds pretty sexy to me. I really wanted to say some other word but I didn't know if it was allowed on this site.
If my post were flagged you could say it, but I have some friends who have guarded viewing turned on. Therefore, I would not receive their feedback. Thank you for your comment, Annmarie.
Life is so much better after a drought. Your happiness is shining through your words.
Thank you, Linda. I hope it's not mere lust as I really do like him. :))
Sometimes things start out as lust but when the dust settles something else appears. My marriage started out as lust.
Great post. I also inspired by others, and nice to find someone has inspired you.
Thank you, Terry. Who are your favorite poets?
Very well done and tastefully sexy. Really quire enjoyable and good for the blood flow. lol
Thank you, George. Goodnight, my friend.
Ha ha Get a room!
After the quickie ceremony. lol Thank you.
A bit sensual.
I'm glad it's not erotic. I save those for private quarters. Thanks, Bill!

You're welcome. I miss you, too.

Thank you, Purrty Kitty! Now I'm hungry. lol
Thank you for posting to GutterGirls~
"I think we need to get a room at the Hyatt." Not very poetic in my book. Likewise the 3rd to last line. There is some good writing in this, though.
I know, John. I was trying to intertwine both humor and sensuality. Perhaps it didn't work, but you know me; always stretching my poetic wings. And Garrison's latest book I think does the same (the former, not the later). Thank you, dear friend, for both reading and sharing your honest opinion.
hmmmmm. Hips on fire? Vegas or bust? a quickie ceremony? pondering and pondering, lol.
Very sensual write. I am happy you are enjoying life. Follow the heart, it knows the way even when we don't. I think, lol.
I'm happy, but my heart still breaks for our mutual friend who is having a bit of difficulty. Thank you, Nan. Hugs.
Very sensual, and when that drought ends.........
There's a flood. LOL Thanks, Lisa. Hugs and blessings.
Wonderful write, Jennifer. Very sensual and filled with longing.
Thank you, Cheryl!
