  • Check out VaporousVenom today…a most excellent post.  Here is my poem in response.


    And He Was Beauty


    Beauty came to me in thoughts
    of your strong articulate mouth
    sense of humor dirty and cheerful
    close cropped hair of salt and pepper wisdom
    experienced hips browned by the sun
    hands chiseled and dark with hard work
    and I loved you for how much you taught me
    about art, music, joy, and aesthetics,
    my caveman with a scholar’s heart
    in blue sweatpants, ripped golf shirt,
    so perfect.

  • Sounds like my boyfriend.

  • I think I need to go out into the heat to … um … wash my car … yeah … oh, it’s just so … hot …

    Oh, I’m sorry, did you say something?

  • ye know Jan, i gotta quit reading your poetry at work.  It makes it too warm in here.. .and it’s hard to explain why I’m . . ye know. .   sweating.     You really do have a knack for sensual poetry.  

    Is it warm in here, or is it me?

  • a beautifully crafted poem …

    random props..keep up the good work

  • LOL…for some reason that struck me as humorous…I hadn’t thought of this one as being all that sexy, but now that I think about it, maybe it is.  VaporousVenom’s post on beauty inspired me to write a poem about the man who got away…

  • yummy…i’m thinking fabio from those romance novel covers in the check out line. i find it humorous & sexy. ;)

  • Hi Jan! Thanks for the compliments. I feel honored that something I wrote inspired you , and this poem is wonderful. I love it so much .
    I like ‘my caveman with a scholars heart’. All the poem is so telling. There is as Lady S says, a touch of sensuality, brautiful poetry , sweet lady!

    Peace and Love :)

  • RAaaar! I see him! Nice poem in response to VV’s post. Your comment was so complimentary. I have only written two stories, have a never-finished third. Most of what I write, is poetry and musings. Consider short stories? Perhaps, one day, I will have a go at it. Thank you.

    Peace and Love:)
