SINS of the FLESH

I so love your skin's feel
   beneath my old rough fingers
   e'en after a caress I steal
   the memory still lingers

As touch moves on to gentle cleft
   I'm filled with anticipation
   of patience I am now bereft
   please fill my expectation

And each little roundish nub
   also begs attention
   calling out for a light rub
   and a poem's mention

Just the sight of your soft curves
    fills me with such delight
   and never, ever fails to serve
   to enrich my appetite

The taste of you upon my lips
   is beyond most others' reaches
   and now my secret finally slips
   I sure love eating peaches

Thank you Marie.So far my main problem ,other than inexperience,is finding a topic.I hope to be able to tell when quality drops off .I know that point is out there.When I find it ,may have to take a short break to recharge.I do appreciate your continued support and comments.........scribbler

Very witty I love it

Fabulous Stan, Mmmm peaches. Haven’t I read this one before, perhaps you upgraded it? I've done this with a couple of my older poems, deleted them and then re-wrote them. Just one wee thing... I so love your {skin’s} feel ………………[skins] … I know you’re like me with the apostrophes, so I’m not 100% sure. PS. You never fall in quality, you just keep getting better and with all your new forms it proves just how great a writer you are Stan.
