I think it is beautiful - and flows smoothly like cream... You are not alone in finding solace in words - the engine of the imagination, taking us into longed for places, where the silk feels soft and the heart beats faster..
I wonder if the footsteps in the sand is too cliched now... It jarred for me... taking me out of the pleasure of your presence into another world... just saying.
descriptively revealing. very clever & telling. that is exactly where the marrow of life can be found. i offer this piece some nicely done superlatives and adjectives ... :)

Thank you, Pete. Have a wonderful holiday season. Lydi**
Your poem is so tip-toeing & tantalizing, I have to make a confessional here & now. I love living in the make-believe world of writing . . . everyday living is what I'm forced to do when I don't feel creative! The land of make-believe-thru-writing is every bit as alluring as your seemingly-sexy poem makes it feel! (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie
like it???? Lydi, it's a multitude of snaps with a main dish of gluttonous "nice" and a rich sensuous velvet cake for dessert.... in truth, your poem (un)dresses our mind in-between, behind, out front and even on the sides with the feelings of love…. did I mention it has to be one of your "nicest" poems...

Lydi;
You have taken the spaces between these lines and filled them with the most delightfully decadent thoughts of deep passion waiting for the right time to make an appearance.
Passion, of course, is not always about sex ... we can be passionate about the most mundane of things ...
passion should be a driver underlying the day to day and gifting we 'valiant footsloggers' with that touch of hope to carry on.
Beautiful write.

' .. plodding through a life of reality ~ while tiptoeing through velvet romance ~ with naked indecency .. '
Lydi, you do it every time, place your bar higher and leap over it with absolute ease! Not only does this poem have a certain succulence but also such a subtle and academic use of language.
