Love Poem: smorgasbord -

smorgasbord -

to swim the abyss ...
          dark depths of a sparkling gaze -
     your coy, captive eyes

to touch electric ...
          my fingers find warm welcome -
     your dermal landscape

to kiss hot and sweet ...
          tender chili pepper lips -
     your fiery flavor

to savor and sip ...
          the places hushed and hidden -
     your nectar, luscious

to imbibe you whole ...
          honeyed, sour, tangy, and tart -
     your wine ... drunkens me.
