Over Easy

Over Easy

A Poem by Kelly Scheppers

Over Easy 

 

 

 

You are Sunday morning 

with eggs over easy,

with buttered toast

cut on the diagonal

and love 

that overflows

the circumference of my arms.

Thank you, Hanir!
If you put your wonderful little poems together in a book, I'd buy more than one copy. This one in particular warms one on a cold day.

Quite welcome, my friend.
no bacon or sausage? LOL

Picturing a warm cuddling, soft breath on the neck kind of feeling here.
very sensual and completely enjoyable.

It is a shared wonder when love is so big you can't get your mind around it, let alone your arms. Using the image that Sunday mornings imparts (what, no newspaper crossword puzzle?) is a clever way to illustrate the sense of security that washes over the lovers, warm as the toast. A lovely piece, Kelly. take care...dan
