I would pose for you if you could promise I would turn as lovely as this poem :)
I like your internal rhyme in the third stanza. The last stanza is fabulous. I believe only a couple of images seem out of place with the rest of the poem: bluebonnets may be a bit too sweet, but not bad. Though, fish-net hosiery seems almost sleazy compared to the rest of your words. Maybe it's just me, but I had trouble leaping out of the field of bluebonnets and into a pair of fish nets. ;)
the addition of the hosiery.
a woman in your favorite hose can conjure all those images that you spoke of.
Really well done
and some great language
Thank you
...makes this a wonderful read. I like the amalgamation of painting with poetry - always do. Lovely, thank you.
I'll peel down my hose and suppose that when my nose is full of rose, then
I'll chant the rosary because I must pay penance for you and the run in my hosiery...
(I'm not even catholic!)
I did some posing this past week for two men very dear to me, and reading this poem recaptured the experience for me. Thank you!
Brightest Blessings,
