~ I want to skydive in red stilettos

I want to skydive in red stilettos

take a leap off the wild side,

sip Chateau Lafite & Margaux

whilst driving 100 mph,

wind blown tresses

in a vintage Lamborghini,

cruise on the Rising Sun

in the south of France

sunbathe naked on the sands

of an Italian villa's shores,

take a cool dip in luscious 

champagne bubbles 

 at the Fontana di Trevi,

dance a sultry tango amidst 

a moonlit Brazilian jungle,

have my spirit soar

in sheer delirium

yet, 

more than anything at all ~

I want to love

 with all the fire & soul 

in my heart

Oh I how I love these poems....I have wrote a few myself and I know how much fun they are and at the same time courageous to put them out there...which is why I don't share mine...big chicken....but not you my new friend...Love your style. This is beautiful and daring, feminine and strong. Great work!

[Frieda P]

Oh c'mon Pat, put on your big girl pants and publish them! ;)

[Patricia]

LMAO.... I know, right? There was a local poetry club that I use to be in and it was led by a semi-retired Lit professor and he just loved me and I adored him. However, he use to push me out of comfort zone and make assignments that really challenged me, and the things I wrote I still haven't shared but maybe two of them on my blog a long time ago. I really didn't have a choice because if you skipped challenges more than three a year you were booted because he did this in his spare time and didn't waste time on people who weren't serious. So he waited until I missed two challenges and made the next challenge a poem about masturbation...LOL OMG! So I did one and maybe one day I will share that one. It is tasteful of course and at least I did it but it took me over a week and it is a simple poem but I had such a hard time with it.

[Frieda P]

HA now that's brave! After that, you should be able to let anything fly..... ;)

[Patricia]

LOL You would think?

[Frieda P]

Hey it's only us, and we won't tell. ;P

[Patricia]

OK I will share it sometime this week ... well I will try anyway :)

[Frieda P]

Pfft and tush, just do it girlfriend! ;)

[Patricia]

:) You got it!!!!! Next time I share I will post it. But if it sucks be kind LOL

[Frieda P]

If it sucks I don't usually comment, my momma taught me to keep my big trap shut if I have nothing nice to say, not as though I ever listened though. haha

[Patricia]

LOL I know I was told the same but it didn't stick but you can comment all you want good or bad ...I can take criticism or I wouldn't be here.

[Frieda P]

There's a difference between critiquing a poem and saying it sucks, I'll tell you that in private haha

[Patricia]

OK you got a deal :)

[Baby Ricochet]

After I read this poem I put skydiving in drag on my bucket list.

[Brittany Zedalis]

Sounds like a blast. Superb writing, dear Frieda. ^-^

Really good write the freedom it portrayed reminded of the decadent roaring twenties!

[Mark]

Ya baby live it! :) :) :)

Whoo! Frieda, this is so awesome - I love the "free-ness" of it, for lack of a better word! I, too, would love to "cruise on the rising sun/in the south of France," as you put it.

And, although some of this may be figurative, I actually have danced "a sultry tango amidst a moonlit Brazilian jungle." Perhaps you have too...but it's quite the memorable experience! Whether you've done all these things yet or not, the imagery is so wonderfully dreamlike and relaxing. The way you've described everything almost sent me into dream land.

Intricately, exquisitely pen'd!

This is more straightforward than your usual works love, not that it makes a difference...everything you write is brilliant...nobody mixes and meshes imagery like you do...I like how it reads like a catalogue of self-contained fantasies but ends with a declaration of wanting to love...unparalleled brilliance as always Mrs.R...let me know when you arrive at that Italian villa k? ;) xo

[Gypsy Warrior Queen]

That is one heck of a dive Frieda! Loved it!whoop whoop!

[Cory Barrett]

I believe you just made me smile! thank you for that, always a pleasure to read, even better when it ends in with a smile. It's not often i finish a poem and there is a mood of fun in the air.

[Madalyn Beck]

I love this! The adventurous nature is coming out at full blast and the fire and passion of life and love are soaring in your words! Fantastic! Definitely a favorite of mine! xo (:
