Effleurage


Enter with me into words
Encircle your hips
With what we trade
In honeysuckle strands

Enter with me into touch
To rectify the matter
Of a person like a turtle
On its back

Yours or mine

Or both

Effleurage
your poems never disappoint. a subtle, sensual, evocative piece, rich in sensation and quiet but powerful emotion.

more than one
Two.

Words and touch.

Which (ought to) make the title plural:

"Effleurages".

Otherwise, like Shannon said.

Plus, hypnotic.

Thank you for this.

If it is possible, I feel singularly honored by the comments from you both.

Thank you.

I read this in the daylight. Now, I'm gonna' have to read it in the dark, under the covers with a flashlight, and hope she soon comes to bed. Sweating now.

I am with Charlie on this one, looking for a flashlight too. Enjoyed reading you John. So nice to come around and find words that make you feel.

Thanks Charlie & Nae
Good to hear from you, Charlie & Nae. More rascally poets always welcome and appreciated.

Interesting phrase, Nae- "words that make you feel." That is something to shoot for.

Take care.
