The Angle of Her Lay

The Angle of Her Lay

 

Depending on the time of day

he might well

choose to rise and meet her

halfway perhaps

beneath that flimsy cotton

bodice top ..

below her shift, her slip or stay ..

Oh’ dear lord

he cried; she has the profile of

a feline and

the subtle curve of a swans neck

feeding ….

Oh’ yes, she does

and just between the you and me

Depending

on the angle of her lay …

Somewhere

between the hollow of her

shoulders

and the very gentlest of sways

Her back

would arc to greet him

as she bites her lip and blushes

and she prays that he

her lover might just stay another day

[1809 Black Plague Decem..]

Hellos, Neville, love this poem,
it made me sad, I see the valliant, captivating, heroine,
a heroine, where it loses her goddess mystic, to what was an illusion,
but it is not till me know of certaintity, we know nothing but rapture,
great poem, :) -----Maynard

A beautiful image and the imagination drifts with the poem angle is easily transformed into angel.

[Neville]

thank you so much for stopping by my friend .. much appreciated .. Neville

[Crowley]

Just saw this on Pornhub...lol. JK. What a tantalizing view, like a snapshot that doesn't show the whole picture, just enough to grab the attention. How much you have to pay for that? The lip biting seizes the imagination. Great job Neville.

dearest Neville... Swans float on Inlets where feelings subside ...
when Desire is embedded in the feathers of Fantasy... pleasured with melodies of Autumn. gently, Pat

[Neville]

A huge poetic thanks to you too Pat .. in fact many of them .. Neville

[FGFRANKLIN]

Steaming hot sensuality in the sweaty throes of wanton love. What's not to love? Tantalizing descriptions.

[Neville]

I don't think I can review this Neville. It is that good. It is quite simply superb. One of my favourites of yours. Or any one else's for that matter.

[Betty Hermelee]

I like the way this swings along with very sensual short phrases, very suggestive, giving us just enough to tease us including beautiful references
Such as: “the profile of a feline” and”the subtle curve of a swan’s neck”
all these lovely adjectives that make this poem a winner!
Warmly, B

[Neville]

[Betty Hermelee]

You're very welcome Neville!
