Natural Woman
“ ..there's a place that I can see
where my baby's so close to me
close enough to feel the heat
wrapped all up inside these sheets.....” Tim McGraw, “Still”
She clambers from an old stepside truck
baseball cap worn real low
Straddling the seat of that old John Deere
Slow rolling it
right out the big barn door
She can plow a damned straight row
Work the stick shift of that old four on the floor
Yet there is something about that glide
In her lazy, bowlegged stride.......
........she really turns me on, you know
a makeshift shower
beneath a shady tree outdoors
Late in the evening
She steps out of her dirty, dusty clothes
Standing under the warm water
Just as naked as you please
Might not look like much to you
“But she's always a woman to me”
...when the moonlight's shining
I lay her body down
“and there's not another living soul around”
An old ceiling fan
spinning slowly overhead
“Lay lady lay”
In the middle of our old brass bed,
she's my desire.......
….....and I'm on fire
“by the dark of the moon”,
In her, I spill my seed
“The window's accusing the door
Of abusing the wall......”
…..my baby gives her man all the good lovin' he needs,
yes indeed
she don't need no damned Coach,
Micheal Kors
or Givenchy
Smooth as Black Velvet
naked, laying right here
next to me
she's wild and free
and as warm as a Summer Breeze
just as fine as "elderberry wine"
“natural woman”....
…...she's all I need
( ...a tribute to a sweet southern gal I know and all the "natural women" everywhwere )

I like the interweaving of song lyrics and the way you paint a picture of a real woman instead of a fantasy one. Nice write!

Well, Thank You Zoe. Runway Divas and "Real Housewives" are not the essence of woman.....contrary to popular urban legend. There is a whole lot of sexiness and sensuality in that old pair of Levis, the flannel shirt and that worn out ball cap as well ; ) (...maybe even moreso)

"yeeha" indeed whitegirl. There were a lot of barns, hay bales, flatbed trucks and naughty "nature" girls in my past to build some great fantasies on.

for country folk this read is sure to bring back memories and for city folk this a nice look at some of the charms found outside a concrete jungle. You did a wonderful job of sharing not just bodily desires but of reflecting the less hurried feel of life outside of a big metropolis.
Love you his sweetheart, truly gifted, versitle pen. Love the appreciation of a natural country woman. Born bred, very familiar with stickshift, tractors and sweet homade wine.
Love your gals spirit here, perfect imperfection, and looking like so comfy nude by the waters.
My kinda girl.
Looks good on you love.
Love
Jennifer

"......unmade, unfeathered, beautiful smile and flannel shirted" Exactly where I want to go after the rigors of the road and city life. My favorite Carol King and Billy Joel songs rolled into one......"You Make Me Feel (Like A Natural Woman)" and "She's Always A Woman To Me"
the poem is the essence of a friend of mine : )
