PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

temptation

she sings her siren's song

so beautifully poised and serene

she seems

yet

I feel her hooves in my back

as she rides me along

I am a mere twig under her

mighty feet

a spell bound simple creature

called woman

so very captivated in the moment sweet

a gossamer web of the finest

delicate dream she threads for me

I am in part creation of her magic

while continuing victim of her web

so sad to admit

she is a hungry creative spider

and I but her latest  idiot snack

yet again

forgive me Lord of such rapacious

repetitive sin

there is a lesson for me here

you keep bringing it to me

in a variety of handsome

fabulous forms

full of wonder, anticipation and

fanciful whim

but 'In My Pride And Vanity'

I just can't seem to see it

so to make my journey's better way

I marvel at  the supreme vastness that is God,

I truly humbly do

and how so very patient he truly must be

most especially when in his dealings

with this adroitly smitten and overly

self indulged hedonist.............
