This is truly delectable poetry Kate. You scooped me into the scene and I felt every word as they touched the creases of my face, and the pure pleasure I derrived from every morsel. I love the way this poem feels and wish I had even a smidge of your enduring talent. Always a pleasure to read you words, Kate, and to close my eyes and inagine after I read.
Love,
Taylor

Wonderful, Kate. Indeed I like it so much that I'll find a special
plce for it in my library. Gene.

"I watch the slow ascent of day
inch down each nugget
of your spine

from bow-headed beginning
to deep-saddled end,

showing, in soft relief,
all the smooth muscle
and sweet ache of life
before casting its
strong-shouldered resolution,
separating light from dark."

Sensuality in all its glory!

i love your reference to the sweet ache of life-very nice write

Work in progress, linked to little-big things in life, sometimes slow, other times minimalistic.
Told, written, suggested with sensuality.

Amazing, isn't it?...how a calloused, sandpapery touch can really be a gentle thing... I find it pretty amazing how much can be communicated with that same touch...eyes reading eyes...souls reading souls...unfolding, connecting, communicating...
This poem does the same...unfolds, connects, and communicates with the reader...

This is a tender reach for love and it assures each person that love, indeed, abounds. No question here that this love is secure.
Blessings and love,
Susan

This flows deep into the very core of sensuosity like warm honey. unique and exquisite, Kate!

Sweet, soothing, sensitive, smooth, and delicious.
How else to describe what is happening to a hunk-man.
To impart the deep love felt for this creature of love.
How else, indeed? This is beautiful beyond review.
One of many fans, - Bill

A creation in subtle beauty that is so astounding....

Be always safe,

As always, Kate, you give us an interesting slice of life when we read your offerings . . . That last stanza is poetry at its absolute best . . .

You touched all the bases in this sensual poem that is so well done so as not to offend the most sensitive person. Metaphorically passionate.

Intimate, sensitive and sensual. Loved all the metaphors. This is a unique one and brilliantly worded. Liz

Tuned_in with those intonations )( this orchestration leaves you happy+ another level of a phenomena (~) where words & music take a rest .~. evol smaerd _ Ted

Beautifully written with sensitivity and good imagery... Great writing.

Such a gentle feminine feel to this poem..
Makes me go gooey...

Now this is poetry! Love it Kate, everything about the subtleness and shades of sensuality.

Oh, I love this, Kate! "each nugget of your spine"... "bow-headed beginning to deep-saddled end..." ""smooth muscle and sweet ache of life"..."braille of calloused fingers onto my face..." "...nuances in skin tone and allegories in flesh"-- the "touch unfolding plot"... rich imagery with personal depth and meaning. --achingly beautiful. --Charlie

Yet another breath-taker, Kate. You have poetically caressed our imaginations and souls, while contributing greatly to Poetry Month! Kudos, friend...
