Koala needs comments please? Poem of love.?
"Silhouette"
Air turns the color of apricots,
falls in tender heaps around us,
quivers under the weightless passion
of glances that circle a thigh, or an eye,
or a mouth, as it speaks in soft roundness.
Candle light becomes opaque,
thickens with your scent, and mine,
and we are like mangoes when they're ripe,
and peeled, and sliced,
arranged like a wheel
upon a blue plate--
barely touching each other.
Update:This poem has been previously published, so thieves beware. (Problem brought to light by Giorgio.)
I'm interested in new eyes.

It is beautiful and unique.
arranged like a wheel
upon a blue plate--
barely touching each other.
So evident and yet, contains an erotic element subtle and thoughtful. And 15% sad.
