Butterfly eyes

Shades of azure and green... a reflection from the sea... gaze across the billowing waves to glorious days of pleasure-filled moments wild and carefree...

The wind swept me into your arms where the sea 

and land met in a cove of mystery and love... 

as the scent of roses filled the air with an 

aphrodisiac of apricot liquor pouring from 

a fountain borne of ancient stolen moments... 

The sunset in golden and burgundy shades of 

passionate delight filled the night with notions 

of Arabian nights and fruit of forbidden 

appetite became the dreams of lovers as 

angels played music from a far off galaxy... 

Peace was as lovely as a thunder cloud filled with 

beauty and celebration of ancient lore... 

as the tide went out to explore the unknown 

mysteries of the sea bringing treasure fit 

for a King and Queen who once ruled the Sea...

Your poem has a way of representing the journey of being swept up by affection or sex or even food or other pleasures! You start with visions by the sea, then the journey takes off like a magic carpet ride thru a variety of landscapes & sensations, well-crafted for all the senses. Then this journey slowly returns to the original location by the sea with grand & dynamic descriptions that could be felt as the climax of whatever journey one has been on! *wink! wink!* Fondly, Margie

dearest Margie... your perception always amazes me. I feel as though you have journey to the Sea and experienced the blessings bestowed. An older poem with an ancient tale that is ageless. You have released the Genie in the bottle. hugs, Pat
