Ribbons by Amanda ConlogueI am tied to you
heart and soul
with ribbons
thin and wide
satin and velveteen
great, frilly bows
wrapped around a present
and when you come home
I'll still be here
waiting to be opened. 08/06/2004 Posted on 08/07/2004 Copyright © 2024 Amanda Conlogue

Posted by Michelle Angelini on 08/07/04 at 07:24 AM I love this poem - it just expresses so sensuously anticipated desire, without being overtly erotic. Good work! |
