The Merchant's Love letter

The Merchant's Love letter

Yaddira I am in chains of darkness

and I hold not my destiny,  

I live to bathe in your cool silent waters

and put rose peddles on your bed;

before the rising of the sun--

hold this humble merchant like a love letter

let your breasts fall softly in my callous hands

give me the taste of your lips to carry

as I comfort the spread of your shoulder

...inhale contentment; Yaddira

and speak no more,

of bitterness and sorrow

let joy enter in with silent moans

smile,

sing the kind of music I live for

softly, grip me, peel me, drown me

serendipity lives in a blush

put away salty tears in my presence... 

cursed be the thought of leaving

Hello Sir Christopher...

A great mix here...

Reminds me of The Great Gatsby, The Sound of Music, topped off with a bed of roses...

I felt like I was waiting for the curtain to close...

Getting ready for the next scene...

Great write! 

Thank you for sharing...

Hugs...

Dear Christopher,

His love for "Yaddira" is all encompassing.  Even her name, an ancient one, is mesmerizing.  Your words are intoxicating.  May she sing him sacred love songs forever.

Peace and Love,

xox Larry

hey Larry, 

thanks for making a great comment, I enjoy when a comment is focused on the actual write, instead of the writer, so your comment means a lot to me, I won't take any credit for this one, it was a joy to write and basically appeared from thin air, I suspect that I'll ruin it by editing at some point, though, thanks again for great comment, Larry
