Something on the Breeze

53

By Sauvignon

The dance of veils
The dance of veils

I love sitting here

Soaking up these rich golden rays

Wrapping me in a cozy embrace

Kissing my cheeks and nose


I feel a gentle caress

Ticking down my arms and over my hands

Gentle tugs playing through my hair

Whispering of a place far away


I close my eyes and lean

Into my caressing, tickling, windy friend

A sudden glimpse of swirling silk

Rich vibrant hues of turquoise, jade and fiery red


I see soulful eyes lined in kohl

Glinting gold from adorning jewels

Elegant hands flowing through dance

Secretive smiles shadowed by veil


I blink rapidly as the images fade

A hazy cloud of sparkling sights

Slipping away as my breeze moves on

Leaning back into the golden light


I smile and wait for the next caress on the Breeze

I love your word use to paint such beautiful imagery, it's wispy yet elegant in it's flow. Great piece of poetry.
