LADY OF THE LATHER

12 02 10

The gloss of your kneecaps
advertise sweet skin summits
over scented bubble drifts

Toenails instinctively waltz
on unseen porcelain
while your shoulders occur to me
smooth as caramel syrup
and wayward pearls of sweat
incline me to follow your torso
down to the water horizon

Do I inquire or
do I imagine

A question deferred
till I mine the wet surface
and come up with handfuls of
bubbly treasure to send to you
with a swift breath
like showers of white rose petals

I just took a bubble bath last night with my candles and sparkling wine.. Is there anything better for a woman.. heavy sigh.. Well I can think of one.. lol
Very sensual write. I loved these lines especially..

"sweet skin summits
over scented bubble drifts" and

"Toenails instinctively waltz
on unseen porcelain
while your shoulders occur to me"

Love the way your mind drew picture of the bubbles over her body reflecting line snow on the mountains.. Wonderful piece. thank you for the rr.. shallimar

I must admit that this one was aimed directly for a woman's heartstrings ;) I don't know much about women, so I had to draw upon a no-brainer for my concept haha It is a personal favourite though...it's one of my earliest attempts at subtle erotica, so I'm very glad you liked it :)

Nice poem. Very sweet. Easy.

[kublakhan27]

Glad you enjoyed it, many thanks.

This just made me want to linger in a candle lit bubble bath with a glass of white wine. In love with the the last stanza...

'and come up with handfuls of
bubbly treasure to send to you
with a swift breath
like showers of white rose petals'

Sounds dreamy and naughty all in the same breath. Loverly. ;-)

Haha yes I was trying to find the middle ground between a journey and a destination...I've actually tried doing it several times but this is the only instance in which I think I pulled it off...in any event, I'm glad you like it ;)

Now my toenails want to waltz again.......... ;-)

[kublakhan27]

Haha Take this waltz? ;)

[SmileBig :)]

Love the title , it's quite sensual great imagery.

[kublakhan27]

Thanks I'm glad you like it^^

Sexual intimacy is implicitly apparent on each line. Though not directly expressed, the simplicity of the words made it easy to follow and easy to form any interpretation at the desired level of specificity. This is my favorite:)

[kublakhan27]

:) I'm glad this one is a favourite for you cuz I actually do have a soft spot for this one...it's a rare case of me knowing exactly what I wanted to do when I sat down to write something...I don't think I ever wrote anything this playful in terms of sexuality, and the playfulness probably translated into a more accessible piece than maybe some others of mine, and maybe it's more relate-able as a result :)

beautiful work, I love the description, the slight sensual feel to the power. It's like female empowerment strong and lovely. :) well at least that was my interpretation. good work as usual :D!

[kublakhan27]

Haha I never thought of that but hey I have no problem being the follower if the female wants to lead :P I also like it when readers think of things that I don't so I'm glad you enjoyed it :D

[quixotic_rose]

YES score for thinking of it haha :)

[kublakhan27]
