Morning Fixes of you

by Shannon McEwen

Gently, ever so gently
White cotton peels back
Revelations of warm flesh

A cheek pressed
To hear the thump, thump
Of love’s repose

A profound inhalation
Of you, fill crevices
Like a portable USB

Unable to resist
Cheek turns and lips touch
Tickled by whispers of hair

Before I flip the covers
Back in place
And carry you with me

Sensual and vivid, but not nearly explicit enough to desserve the tag. You may scare away readers who are afraid of reading something with naughty words instead of imagery that can be read as naughty, depending on where the readers mind wanders. That's just superb poetry, to make a mind see the passion without spelling it out. My own does not do it this well. I have visions in my mind to carry me off to sleep now... JJ

"A profound inhalation Of you, fill crevices Like a portable USB" Can I use that as a bumper sticker? Amazing stuff :)
