slow circles

slow circles

A Poem by Mary C

fingertips trace
            slow circles on his temples
           i gaze down
          barely whisper-
                      
                   "god...     i love your mouth"

he pauses
       searches my hooded eyes
                  
                  
     "i meant it...     you know?
          
            - i'd move   heaven and earth for you"
  

my back arches involuntarily
                  
                        " you already are..."

Sweet, gentle devotion. Simply put and so honest. I love it. This is very moving.

Very gentle, not a hint of salaciousness. The very essence of imagination lends a sensual touch of eros. Beautifully written.

You painted a great picture here.........Pablo Neruda would have liked this one.

Soft and seductive.
The poetry has a relaxed pace and you give the reader plenty of space to stretch out and simmer in the attention of you words.
A delightful read.

You’ve got a fascinating premise here, and even more fascinating implications, impressive.

These plot lines capture this well:

"god... i love your mouth"
"i meant it... you know?
" you already are..."

you develop simplicity and yet the verse give much... to the reader...
