Hair in the wind … hips on the roll …
Pouted lips … too proud to kiss …
A regal gait … a saucy walk …
Flirtatious eyes … a beguiling smile …
Tender thoughts … trapped in an icy heart …
A floating dream … too fast to catch …
Charming demon … with a mind of its own …
Unfettered claims ... impenitent ... in their delicate hurt
Forever …
My poetry
In
Motion …
She is …
A spectacle …
That swirls around me …
Like a whirlwind
She is …
Mystifying like the truth
And ...
Like poetry itself
She is simple but complicated
Daunting but at ease
And ...
When she says that I am lunatic
She
Is
Right about that too
My poetry in motion …that’s what it is …
This lunacy …
Suave
Unadulterated
Down-to-earth
And perhaps …
Too arduous to be construe d
As the ...
Gentle
Furious
Incorrigible
Lunacy …
Of
Love
Copyright 2005 from Sam's highly praised anthology: SENSUAL ILLUSIONS
A further collection of poems, many from years in the Middle East, but also the California San Francisco and Central Coast areas (Santa Cruz, Carmel, Big Sur, Berkeley, etc.).
If you tend to believe romantic, passionate, masculine poetry is a thing of past eras, read "She Intrigues Me," and be swept away in the beautiful craft of a contemporary poet of love.

I could feel the wind in my hair, as I read this.
