PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Obviously no poem of mine can adequately describe you.

So I will be content to present my observations:  the

way that profusion of hair frames your face; the

muscularity of your now shirtless torso---distinct, but not

distorted in the manner of professional body

builders or other advertisers of chemical or mechanical

services.  The way your jeans fit you should also be

noted---and, now that your shoes are absent, how the

cuffs kind of pool around your grass-stained feet.  In the

presence of your beauty, I am ugly; in the

presence of your achievements, I am unaccomplished; in the

presence of your answers, I have no further questions; in the

presence of your love, I discover that I am loved.  I crave the

fragrance and flavor of your mouth, your bared skin, and,

ultimately, the sweetness you eagerly release.  No poem of

mine can adequately describe you; but this poem of

mine should not fail to make the effort to do so.
