LOVE A FAIRY, LEAVE A FAIRY

Love a Fairy, Leave a Fairy I need to tell you before you go How I love the smell of you on that wornFlannel shirt you wear often and fondly I love the way your muscled ass smiles and then winks Mischievously as you dive into the lake on our moonlit swims. I love the way you take your time to massage, with luxury, every inch of me before we have hot, hard, writhing, sweaty intercourse in the middle of any ol’ afternoon. I love the way you heal me with open heart eyes absorbing my pain when I suffer some hurt or injustice. I love the way you cook pasta with marinaraLeaving the kitchen speckled with sauce and noodles to enjoy us over candle light and Sinatra. I love the way you caress my knee when I drive too fastand the way you laugh at my frustration cause I think you drive too slow. I love the way you leave the toilet seat up and the toothpaste neatly rolled. Now you are gone,  I love the space you occupied and the air you breathed.The sunshine you laughed inThe water reflected in the deep of your soul andearth loosed thru your fingers   Your big summers’ done. At edge of lake isan orb of dreams I love about you Autumn fingers caress my knee Dim pre-winter elfin cast sugar- frost offerings on the verge And you’ve gone. I be lifted on slight of breeze,tween sleep and wake Fairy wings shimmer and twinkleWisp of laughter reverberate PiP!Gone

Hi Frangipangi

Have not seen you around in a while. This is a beautiful sensual tribute with a mixture of both direct and indirect sexual imagery that i enjoyed. The ending was of course unexpected but it had the effect of lightening the obvious deep sense of loss that had been building in the second half of the poem. There were a couple of lines that i felt you could work on a little. The most obvious is the one below which i read as "massage" rather than "message" although of course he might have been a "texting" efficianado.....but would he have been able to get a signal out there by the rock pool lol. Anyway "I love the way you take your time to message, with luxury, every inch of me before we have hot" might be: "I love the way you take your time to massage, luxuriously every inch of me before hot....." (then your details are pretty clear lol) The line: At edge of lake is feels a little rough for me. Perhaps "At lake's edge is" ? Hope this is of some help in applying just a little extra pinch of Fairy dust to a great poem. BW Keith

Has it taken me this long to comment on this?

please forgive me. You know I hate love poems but this is much more. It is sharing, loving and excellent poetry, not a word out of place. And I feel your loss. cheers, Jess Forever unwrapping the eternal present.
