In a Summer's Sigh

on the wisp of a dandelion seed my wishes float endlessly adrift from the confines of mind my thoughts arise with endless emotion as my body shivers with the same motion as these dandelions beneath the soft breath of summer's exhale as it whispers gently upon them my heart bleeds for you with the same passion as this sun rising across the sky it blushes in the same tones as my flesh bared beneath your touch i watch as the kiss of morning erupts in blushed strokes across this sky i listen as the birds sing short ballads of love within the heated breaths of summer's sighs i sigh as i close my eyes beneath your touch awakening in my mind as it climaxes with desires adrift in the rift of dandelion seeds June 29, 2020

I love all the respiratatory references: breath/exhale/whisper/sigh. You have such mastery over the language of subtlety with blushes, shivers, kiss of morning, heated breaths, and climaxing with desires (okay, maybe that last one wasn't quite as subtle, but it made a perfect 10 on the landing). Great poetry, as always I'm a big fan. Miss you in July, hope all is well. Hugs ~ John

I was thinking this is sensual! As I read "awakening in my mind as it climaxes with desires" then I saw the name of the contest and I laughed. So write!

Next time I see any Dandelions, I'll not see them, for I'll be seeing your poem before my eyes, and yes, love how you use a simple dandelion as the main, many congrats on your win, James :) x
