Glopowrimo prompt 2
Sonnet colours
It's long overdue. Missed this one.. sorry.
The first flush that mounts your ivory cheeks
Delicate rose tinged on saffron cream
Demure downcast ebony lashes speak
More prolific than all my poems in reams.
On sudden impulse when thus you tilt your gaze
Steering eyes of becalming lucent jet
My heart skips a beat lost in blissful maze
I am putty in your hands my fate.
When in simplest movement your pearly hips undulate
I thank God, in a fervour all His creation praise
I wince in pain, because this dire thirst to satiate
Myself, like Lazarus a thousand times, He would need to raise.
Colouring my pages of untouched pristine white
Lady you usher in snowy sunlit dawn and darkling night.
