MY LADY IN OILS

MY LADY IN OILS

A Poem by The 13th Eros
"

It begins In our courtyard

"

I see you here
in our courtyard,

hair pulled back.
And you have on

your yellow dress,

a saffron cream,
soft cotton.
I simply stare;
so love looking at you.
You gather

fragrant flowers,

in azure…

teal…

corals…

rose…

salmon…

blush pink,

like your cheeks

when I make

you laugh,

that naughty laugh.

I walk slowly over
with my brush in hand;

have you pause

in this moment,

wanting to capture

your timeless beauty.

My brush moves

on the canvas

like fingers

over your soft skin.

You come alive

on my cloth.

A wisp of your hair

dances wind-swept

across your cheeks;

sun-speckled sweet.

Now daubed tenderly

in fine glossing-drifts

across your bare shoulders.

I touch your skin,

line by line;

fresco-sunbeams

glimmer-shimmering.

Smiling,

I look at you

sitting for me,

notice your hand

reaching up

lifting your dress

so subtlety;

your coy smile.

I watch,

as I cover you

in oils.

Stroking you

one soft coat

upon another,

slower now

as you smile

a hungry smile.

Shading…

sketching…

sliding down

your body;

my colors

woven over you.

Caressing your breasts

with strokes of cream;

milky alabaster.

Brushing them

stroke by stroke

through your dress.

You inhale,

sigh like a song.

And I draw dark

sacred midnight sable

all around you.

Famished for your touch

I release my brush

and it dances

on the earth

at my feet;

canvas complete.
You smell my scent

as I kneel before you;

chamomile and rosemary.

My lady;
my beautiful lady
covered in oils.
No artwork

compares
to you;
your heartbeat,
your warmth
that refreshes me
like a spring.
Wanting you.
Needing you.
Pleased at the thought

of pleasing you.
Kissing your legs now;

savouring your taste.
Hands on your dress;

staring up into your eyes.
I lift you,

carry you gently

to our room

where another bottle

awaits you.

My lady in oils.

Your welcome
That's about as close as you can get to climax within the confines of poetry

You inhale,
sigh like a song.
And I draw dark
sacred midnight sable
all around you.

Should I say big *sigh* or tell you how I really feel?

A pocketful of poseys splattering a watercolor frenzy of allure that come together in a whisper of perfection. I can't say more. I adore this.

Wow....just...wow....To say this is amazing...that your writing is amazing...would be an understatement. This is just so beautiful, sensual in the most loving way from the first line to the last. I was in awe of every line! I also enjoyed your almost-memories, the mentions about the familiar laugh for instance. Your words tell a beautiful story which I thoroughly enjoyed reading!

Phew...HOT. Provocative yet so innocent. You painted a lovely picture with your words.

I will confess to thinking the metaphor of the artist paint and mixing it with love...is becoming cliche. But you made this so very fresh and new.
