The Fabric of Morning

The Fabric of Morning

 

 

 

Linen whites,
brocades of intricate blues and greens
weave the fabric of morning

Coffee, strong
nullifies the peering of eyes
Strands of copper hair
snare his pillow.

Bodies merge, conversation blurs
like freeway lights in blinding rain

Linen whites
veils of hello, goodbye
weave the fabric of morning.

[Kelsey Ann]

I agree with JMKane117, the third stanza is gorgeous!

[Kelly Scheppers]

Good to see you, Kelsey...thank you so much!

There is a scent of soft, white linen and rich coffee flooding the senses and hovering over your sensual music of moods and magic. So tenderly breathed, Kelly. xo

[Kelly Scheppers]

Oh yes, there MUST be coffee...no morning would be complete without it! Thank you my dear!

[Patricia Wedel]

dear Kelly, so delicate and intimate...
a wisp of passion as dawn gives way
to "brocades of intricate blues and
greens". Your poet heart paints a
romantic Monet of bodies entwining
in the fabric of morning. truly, Pat

[Kelly Scheppers]

...thank you, Pat! It's quite lovely to strike a pose with Monet!

[Patricia Wedel]

Hi Kelly, so many doctors offices I go to... have
Monet art that U have never seen.
II have a gorgeous Monet that In
bought in a thrift store. Love the
way you strike a pose with Monet.
Madonna would do that in her song...
Summer is slowly strolling along the
garden path... truly, Pat

I bought in a thrift shop.

[JMKane117]

The third stanza is the bomb.

[Kelly Scheppers]

I truly appreciate your kindness. Thank you so much!

[Cory Barrett]

So much precision here. I love you lines are sharp and clear, but still delicate and wispy. Really lovely writing.

[Kelly Scheppers]

Thank you, Cory...it was wonderful to see you!

So articulate, neat, tidy is this Kelly in the unveiling of the morning from the night before of sensual activities which are good for mind and body!

[Kelly Scheppers]

My mind and body thank you most kindly, Andrew!
