National Poetry Month, 2018 - Poem of the Day at The Poetry Box

Please enjoy today’s selection: “Leaning into the Wind” by Cynthia Linville, which appears in Poetica Erotica, Vol 1:

Leaning into the Wind

barefoot, long legs stretched beside me
you cross your toes with a sigh

a smile quirks at the corner of your mouth
eyes alight, hotter blue than the sky

expansive, your arms reach wide
your mask, a cheshire grin

your hands are birds in flight
inviting me to catch them

your three day stubble
invites my hand, my cheek

my tongue invited by
the slight gap between your teeth

my fingers itch to caress your scars
your knee, your side, your chin

flying, arms spread
I lean into you, as into a strong wind

Come enjoy musings that stir the soul & the libido.
