Sex

by Ann Mills

The sound was exciting,
The smile inviting,
The eyes so alluring
and deep.

It seemed within realms
of the entirely possible;
The memories swell
in my keep.

Good love, when it's offered,
Need not always apply
To the preferential coffer
of a man.

The sky will not fall,
Though, and I will survive
This inevitable pall
made of sand.

Some good imagery running through this, particularly at the end. I liked how that last stanza in particular read to me.

Well-crafted and enjoyable to read. Grabbed my attention and pulled me through to a happy end. :)
