Analysis of Sex Skin And Soul



Sex Skin And Soul

Nude you are sex, skin and soul
Body of flesh, soft mystery
A scented woman
Whose perfume is a sensual kindness
Reaching for me, touching me
Like gentle showers of April spring.

I tingle at your finger tips and rise
A breath of fresh air
Arrives when you are near me
Your arms and legs cradle me
Your warm, wet oasis
Bathes me in midnight dew.

Your nakedness surrounds me
Stirring my senses and my curiosity
To perspicaciously wrap myself
In all of your erotic knowledge
And feed the fire,
Our bodies lighting up the night.

We are insatiable pilgrims and lovers
Who worship each other in kisses
Devouring our pleasures
Our mutual satisfaction becomes
A Milky Way across the sky
Decorating us in stars and pearls.
