thick curly black hair
huge dark carnelian eyes
beautiful harpie
petite to a perfection
each curves return a wonder
her face the shape of a heart
with a tiny freckled nose
full lips all scarlet painted
this goddess from the levant
so luscious and flirtatious
a sweet ripe pomegranate
asking to be peeled

the beauty of life
is there for you to see
but you have to look

pines clatter windows
a howling wind rising
the moon in hiding

wearing my armor
silver paint on cardboard
x over my heart

your moles are signposts
and your freckles are pathways
leading me to bliss

a single red rose
bleeding petals in the wind
crimson tears in flight

above the cliff face
spiraling ever higher
eagles soar the sun
