THIS SUDDEN NYMPH, AND OTHER POETRY BY DONOVAN BALDWIN
By Donovan Baldwin
i smile to see her
this sudden nymph in moonlight
dashing to my arms
-----
i turned and reached out
one last blind attempt at love
and you took my hand
-----
she's so intimate
drops all that hides her beauty
of body and soul
-----
stripped bare in their love
with nothing to hide behind
surrendering all
-----
it's no illusion
gift of love i offer you
a mystery the same
-----
moan that song for me
the pleasure song with no words
we both love to sing
-----
your moonlight kisses
sending me to my slumbers
appear in my dreams
-----
plucking her flower
caress the stem and petals
nectar on fingers
-----
i know not her shape
kiss caress and word make me
blind at her beauty
-----
we told fairy tales
believing in fantasies
then our stories touched
-----

POEMS, COMMENTS, AND HAIKU BY DONOVAN BALDWIN, SEPTEMBER 19, 2019
in your honeyed realm
entranced by dripping petals
thirsting for your love
-----
your mouth unwraps me
sweet words strip my concealment
lover left naked
-----
When words begin to come
They are driven by the winds
Blowing from some secret land
An island by the sea where
Lovers, we, walk hand in hand
Appraising sunsets, and,
The sand beneath our feet,
Stopping to exchange kisses
And caresses in the warm surf
At the edge of our own world.
-----
your lips to my lips
your soft sweet nectar soothing
insatiable thirst
-----
tantalizing tongue
offers more than poetry
at touching moments
