Maria

looking across memory lane

Maria always looked down

when she softly spoke

then raise her eyes , biting

full lips that spilled desire

 

a silhouette cut for little black dresses

black hair that flowed in gentle waves toward her hips

she danced with both arms in the air

and snapped her head back

when she laughed

 

tequila made her smile

watching her fingers trace the rim

I knew she wanted more 

she leaned against me

graced her cheek against mine

whispering delicately into my ear

and lit the fires of the night to come ...

This is a stunning story you have painted in this poem. The allure of women. Everyone has their own special encounter that they can remember of course mine is about a man but as humans we all can relate to this poem quite well. I like that I can picture this scene in my mind clearly.

Very passionate...anticipating...sexy. Very good! The little details really make this pop!
"biting
full lips that spilled desire"
and "snapped her head back

Well done Robin. I can almost see Maria in her alluring dance. She's wearing a red dress that matches her red lips and really sets off her black hair. You do paint a very sensual picture with your words.

sometimes, in the morning, it was maria in one ear, and the rooster in the other

This is a super romantic piece - you captured the essence of Maria very well.
