Yves at Mindlovemiserysmenagerie has invited poets to contribute to the prompt ‘Vernalagnia – the romantic mood heralded by spring’.
This is mine.
Involuntary
lick of lips anticipates
coy kiss, soft purse,
a pout of parting, promise
still to come,
a sideways glance, budding
hope, emergent
another lick,
more conscious, now
enhance.
Well-slept sap arisen, bubbling, brewing, plump’d provocation,
scented breathlessness,
poised, lush,
voluptuous,
Spring of step, eyes shutter, wider, flicker,
flash of iris, flagg’d arousal,
flirtatious kiss, grown deeper,
nascent temptress.
