Lips
Succulent;
Ardent in candor;
Bloated with passion;
Yet lighter than a feather;
Waltzing like an ethereal sylph;
A cavalier in spirit;
A bohemian rhapsody in motion;
Gelatinous tides cascading and ebbing,
In two fold symmetry;
Jazzing amidst the summer mistrals;
Journeying to my path of sight.
Palisades to your whispers,
In your bewildering contrasts,
A celestial union of Artemis and Aphrodite;
Hestian portals of your hearth,
Guarded by sensuous Nymphs;
Conduits to your reservoirs of unconditional love,
Pristine waters of an amazonian wilderness;
Two quadrants of watermelon,
Squeezed from within to conceive;
A chute of cherry blossoms;
An orchestra of vermillion;
An ensemble of pink;
All intertwined to mold perfection;
In a pair of lips,
Yours my love.
