Satin Satchel

I stand close enough
zooming in on the brush strokes of your canvas
twisting the dials of emotion
in my psyche
so that every pore is in focus

Needing to
smoke you - - drink you - - have you
I cover my naked lust
with red silk
settling for a mental picture
to tuck seductively in
my satin satchel of memories

Reviews

[CD Campbell]

I enjoyed this immensely. I am positive that this has been mentioned before, but "smoke you- drink you" is incredible. My god, if a women ever said that to me I would die and consider my life complete. I don't know why, maybe it's the love of language. My true love. My highest praise. CD

The flawless facets of this tiny gem simply sparkle!
Profoundly romantic; arousingly sensual.
Work to be admired, Lydi!

Wow....steamy hot and sensual Lydi - your words sizzle upon the page. The longing, the ache ....I cover my lust with red silk... I am speechless. This is so, so great!!!

Lydi... red silk in sensual folds
of desire to be an intimate part
of someone's gratification is a
theatrical embrace of romance.
truly seductive... Pat

[Lydia Shutter]

"Needing to
smoke you -- drink you -- have you..."

Now, that's what I call an insatiable appetite! It has all the L's of a Lydia signature...lust, longing, and libido!

[Lydia Shutter]

The BEST review EVER! The 3 L's......I will remember that! Thank you so much, Kelly. Have a great weekend. Lydi**

[Kelly Scheppers]

...you as well, Lydi!

Ahhh... I don' know what came first Lydi- the poem or the picture, but they compliment each other perfectly. The hushed secretive tone of the speaker in contrast with the loud colors is stunning. A satchel worth keeping. :)

[Lydia Shutter]

The words came first. I find the graphic after I write.....it is fun for me! :) Thank you so much for the review. Lydi**

A lovely keen eye you have Lydi!

[Lydia Shutter]

Thank you!

" ... smoke you - - drink you - - have you ...". Wowzers. Plenty of sultry, "hot" imagery all wrapped up in a satin satchel. This is a perfect offering for Friday Night Writes. Consider this a standing ovation. ~Jim

[Lydia Shutter]

Curtsying here! :) Thanks, Jim. Lydi**

I really enjoyed this poem. For some reason this is the type of poem i'm used to seeing behind a glass case

[Lydia Shutter]

Behind a glass case? Not sure what you mean, but I thank you for your review. Lydi**
