Musings on Life, Love, and Linguine-Poetry & Writing
“See with your eyes! Listen with your ears! And if you wish to smell the fragrance, press for an explanation of every unresolved matter until your understanding is complete.”-Sen No Rikyu
Intimacies shared
Over tea vanish in a vaporous
Mist as your smoldering
Eyes meet mine
Over the rim of the delicate cup
A burning need to touch
Our lips, to kiss
As the seductive scent
Of white star jasmine
Fills the tensile air

Hmmm, I may have to rethink my devotion to coffee. I never realised tea could be so deliciously seductive.
