Dark Pleasure by Vandy Massey |
I had forgotten what real was
until you reminded me
The taste was new, yet familiar
like a dream almost remembered
Each kiss,
redolent of sweet wine,
inky, dark and dangerous
Scarlet stains
sticky on my lips
Burgundy bruises to remind me
Leaving me sated
and craving more.

Funny how a person can forget, until something or someone reminds them!
This is provocative and delicious.
I love this...
"like a dream almost remembered"
Great likening.
This imagery is perfect for the picture:
Each kiss,
redolent of sweet wine,
inky, dark and dangerous -
Thanks for linking up with Sunday's Challenge LM ~ Happy week ahead ~
Love how colors entwined with tastes...a visual/sensual poem.
Just like the subject of the painting, a kiss can bring back the entire blooming tree!
Oh I love the feeling of this... Sweet
The painting was begging for this poem!
Very sensuous. Love it
