Sensuous

A Poem by Einstein Noodle

 
Loie Hollowell's Sensuous, Suggestive Paintings Provoke and Delight �
(image by Loie Hallowell)
Sensuous
cod .............salted, 
dried and packed in
wooded treasure boxes with 
sliding wood lids
I kept things in there once. 
Things like a pair of red dice,
my lucky rabbits foot ... the real one;
A couple baseball cards ... rubber bands, tacks
And     .......................             dreams of women.
Purring warm with the
fluidity of solids ..........with glow
conscious and alive in my hands 
hands cupped and spooning
a table for two
sun baked linen 
shaken to clothe flat quiet table
curves of warm cherry wood legs crevassed behind blue eyes
 minds ....and .... hands 
                                      exploring
so many forks for one meal
(I don't know what they're all for)
red cream 
smooth flow 
radiates radish sauces
star veins pink when opened
over smooth and rippling dimples
fitted as one
a table for two .........................sensuous.

I went searching to find more of your great poetry to read and absorb. I think of it as a courtesy to one I respect so.. I stumbled on this one and, I am so glad I did! I love the sax! I am a fan of smooth jazz myself and this is an excellent selection for your poem. It has quite the sensual mood to it. I think every kid has some kind of box they kept their treasures in. Mine was a cigar box. Don't know where it came from. You have done a wonderful job in taking this through different moments in your thoughts and dreams. Moving from childhood to adulthood while doing it. Hands cupped and spooning a table for two..... I like that line. Minds and hands exploring....so many forks for one meal.... It's as if you fade in and out of being with a woman privately in an intimate setting and then dining in a nice restaurant with linen tablecloths and finery. I have enjoyed this read as I read it multiple times. Great work, Mr. E. Temp

I had to read one of your poems today, because they are treasures and you don't gift us with your gems nearly enough Mr E. I was delighted to read your sensuous lines again and delve into those boxes where you kept your dreams of women:)

This time I pondered on your posted image and saw fingers touching a fine stemmed wine glass :)

I also played your choice of music. Nothing like a bit of sax to create the right ambience for dinner for two.

Have always been a fan of jazz, traditional and modern. Inherited that from my Pa. Have a lovely day

This is sensual and romantic. Even with all the table descriptions. I think it adds to the sexy tone not sure why but it works. Well done

I like be poems that are different in description yet can add a feel of something else
What an attractive and sensual correlation of items. I find your writing quite poignant and seducing. It draws one in and leaves the reader hanging on ever word.

Writing with a play on words, seductive suggestions with taste, not trash, is very appealing.
Beautiful piece of work.

A poem rich in color and feel....I loved the purring warm dreams, the sun baked linen and the curve of warm cherry wood legs. Such focus on detailing all that goes into creating a wonder dinner for two. This poem is delightfully sensuous in more ways than one. I feel this could be so apt a table set for Valentine's Day! Beautifully penned, dear E ❤

I am relishing this poem, your thoughts flowing, blending with subtlety, those different kinds of tastes, the visual delights mixed with the olfactory ones and those that stir the taste buds and other senses too at all at once and the same time. The sensuousness builds up as the poem flows, I stop and savour every treat your words lay out for me. There's nothing like a sensuously fitted table for two! Loved this poem, dear sir!
