Georgia Summers

 

Georgia Summers

 

 

Georgia summers

were as piquant as

a mint julep in July.

Languid days of skinny-dipping,

where temperatures were as high as

the traversing of hands

 underneath a skirt

of fettered gauze.

Such a sweet, soft sensuality in these reflections in liquid summer lights... Okay... Arkansas, Tennessee, Georgia... A beautiful world just around the bend... :)

It was a time travel through my imagination, with the inspiration of art! I am thrilled you enjoyed it, my darlin!

i don't know about "mint julep" but this piece of poetry leeds my mind somehow to Sally Mann and her children summer pictures. It could be harmless but who knows? Maybe there's a dirty little secret behind. For me this is a very special Poem.

[Kelly Scheppers]

Her photography of the south is extraordinary. Thank you for the comparison, Annie...nice to meet you!

[Neville]

My word, what a perfect little gem you have created here and shared with the world.... N

[Arline]

[Kelly Scheppers]

I need to hire you as my agent! How can I ever thank you for this wave of generosity? ...dear Queenie, perhaps a thousand thank you's will suffice!
