Warm Wet Winds

...I look at you

With

 

consummate longing...

 

 

 

My dear friend Toni Barca painted this wonderful art and it seemed so perfect for the poem, I had to ask her if I could covet her creation for my poetry.  The painting is called L'arbre (the tree).  Per Toni, "this female tree is rootless, and free, as she holds the apple of knowledge.  The medium is pastel on black paper.

 

 

 

The warm wet winds

a soft darkness blowing

in a

luster of

sensual patina

 

cultivating sands

of desire

sculpting tempting sensuous

sea breeze forms

raw sounds of love

 

These warm wet winds

filter through

silent limbs

possessing

morning dews pleasure

tasteful sensuality

 

I look at you

With

 

consummate longing

 

Your smiles

beckon me

 

to remove Your

creature comforts

 

and restore You

to the wild.
