The Senses

Eyes are a portal
for our souls to
admire the universe
around us.
Mesmerized by the
brushed blues
that paint the sky above
and the simple beauty
of a blossom;
one of its kind,
growing tall amongst
an army of
green bladed soldiers.

The ears allow
one's body to
merge into an
understanding
of the mind.
To embrace passionately
with the angels that
sing words of poetry.

The sensation when
two sets of lips
gently caress to
absorb each other as whole.
Taste can be
a deadly weapon
that has the power
to deceive
after their mark
has been scarred.

The scent of
cherished memories
rush into the nose
creating a feeling of
pure content and
happiness.
It leads one another
to find the missing
piece to their puzzle.

 
When two melt
together as one,
creating a currant
of sweet body heat.
Touch will call.
It can be louder
than the loudest
scream from the peak
of the tallest mountain.
These hands will
unravel your skin
to reveal the crimson
soul that awaits
underneath.

Made me accutely aware of all of my senses as I read each stanza. A couple grammar hiccups: first stanza, "one of it's kind." That should be its, I believe. Also, second stanza, "ones body to." That should be one's. I would remove the also in "Taste can also be." Other than that, lovely!

This is a Wow! You have a gift at weaving your words into elegant and graceful images that catch the soul and lift it in imagery that is both tactile and heartfelt. I found your descriptions to be vivid and catching as well. Great Ink!

Having read this poem the senses come
alive, the scent, feel and taste, one of
the other becomes overpowering, unleashing
intense desire and unbrideled lust.
You have created a work of art and brought
it alive, to remind each of us that when not
making love we may be wasting our time.
Thank you ,
