Citrus Tryst

by E. A. Pugh




She is divine
Standing strong in the sunshine

Dirty gardening finger nails digging in
soft old
sun warmed
Flesh.
Acid drips pools off dusty forearms.
Sweet tang.
suck a pit.
spit it.
Gulp hose water.
bite deep.
Fascia packages

“Oh My” tryst

Lust weeps acid sunshine.
bite deep
suck a pit
gulp it
sweet tang
Lemon tree
Lemon tree
Daughter of the Sun
Gods gift to man

She is divine
Standing strong in the sunshine

Dirty gardening finger nails digging in
soft old
sun warmed
Flesh.
Acid drips pools off dusty forearms.
Sweet tang.
suck a pit.
spit it.
Gulp hose water.
bite deep.
Fascia packages

Author's Note: 22/30 Challenge, TY Maria 4-24-11 these are my words, yes I wrote this. Taking on a 30/30 challenge creates some duds and some floods.
