Laying my head on your stomach while the sun streamed through the blinds forming stripes caressing your contours just for a moment I thought of biting the thighs of your perfect body.
Your sea green eyes animate Summer terns and gulls off the starboard bow your smile raising the waves structuring the water billowing the sails of boundless passion.
Tonight I will undress you still covered in sand tasting of sweat, salt and Coppertone remains of a day at the shore where no one knows, for we two give no clue while hiding in plain pose.
But Autumn comes, the Summer’s gone
“it’s time for us to both move on”
just one last kiss, a last caress
it’s time to dress for fall.
When I was young, my mum used totake me to the barber and say “Do it like Fabian”. I think she had a crush on him. (I had enough hair for that style at the time.)
Best wishes, Pete.
(1) So those gritty thighs taste of sweat, salt, and Coppertone? Sounds like a great summer treat!
(2) I love the imagery in this free verse poem. Though lacking in structure and rhyme, I was alert to the harmony of sounds and a certain rhythmic flow, both of which pleased me very much.

Years and years and years ago there was a film “A Summer’s Place” with Sandra Dee and Fabian. It was my first “adult” movie! good poem.
