So delightful & full of sensuous playful enchantment! The way life is tough for so many these days, I also find myself wanting an escape which I get thru poetry, both reading & writing. This poem inspires me even more to find such magical places where we can carve out a moment's hideaway. Every single word is so fresh & original, the things I love most in writing! (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie

Beautiful and tempting words dear friend.
"then, tomorrow morning
taste the sauna samba sunrise with me
the sort seen only once every forever
listen carefully to hear butterfly wings
play a lustful jazzy tune"
All of us need a lustful jazzy tune. Thank you Lydia for sharing the amazing poetry.

I agree dear Lydia. Need many lustful jazzy days and you are welcome.
Powerful imagery and feelings to go with it! I enjoyed your manner of speaking/writing. The ending was so powerful, after all the beauty and amazement limned you just say, "come with me." Great write. Tyfs!
First of all, I'd die to have a dress and hat like that! ...and the hair length wouldn't be bad, either!
You saute, and slip and slid and samba like nobody's business, Lydi! Your poetry requires a new classification on here...I'm going with "saucy"!

Oh Lydi... the images you have created here are lovely...samba sunrises and butterfly wings playing a a jazzy tune.. You have such a classy style my friend. This one is going in my favorites...and the art you chose..Wow..love everything about this! :) Julie
100/100 sighs slipping and sliding
You really are a fine marriage broker! You're able to marry all manner of emotions and have them sing over the clamour of so-called amorous goings-on.
As to the way you set great phrases and make language your very own tool, ' .. come with me ~
watch as peppermint thoughts turn to licorice ~
smile as i scavenge ~ salvaging what is left of this day .. '
You thrill, you inspire, you always please, thank you so much, Lydi..

come with me
climb up to the tippy top of the rainbow
where we can peacefully sleep on fluffy clouds
So mesmerizingly beautiful lydi..
You have beautifully said about the desire consuming her...and finding a kind place to go back to....it's steamy yet magical...:)
Superb writing as always Lydi. Why you aren't a world renowned poet, flying from book signing to award shows I will never know.

hell yea, bags packed and everything.. I want to climb that rainbow, wan to see peppermint turn to licorice... Lydi you know all the good spots, all the jazzy spots and I will always follow you into "sauna samba sunrises" and here I thought you only wrote "nice" poetry, but this poem is this and even more, it's a "brilliantly nice" poem... all colorful and with butterfly wings and fluffy clouds... sigh, you had me at "come"... lol.. ;0)

There is a beautifully silken sibilance at work here, one that draws you in to a delightful place of whimsical imagination. This would certainly be 'a kinder place to run to'.
I like it Lydi...good write
