Sense and Sensibility-   Five parts


 
 

S I G H T
 


What turns you on  
The sight of a pubescent belle  
The nimble nubile form hunched over the rail  
The long legs in Library reading Byron
Or the tantalizing cleavage
The bathing slum Cinderella  
The mahogany coloured calves  
The visible haunches by the open sewage  
 
What holds your sight
A drop of sweat trickling down her neck
An unsuspecting mother feeding her baby  
Long silky tresses dancing in the breeze  
or may be the willowy figurine  
strolling down the lake
or the oblivious couple making love in the park  
A thick stack of money under your bed
with unfulfilled promises of base desire
or inviting eyes indicating mischief from the dark  
 



S M E L L
 



What turns you on
The strong smell of wet mud
or the fresh fragrance of afternoon rain  
May be your lover's sweat post-coitus  
could it be the overpowering old wine
or the freshly saved eucalyptus wood  
The aroma of just washed long tresses  
The smell of camphor and lost memories  
from an old dress  
The faint pheromone from the shredded gown  
Wafting lavender or uplifting rose
May be the sinful dark chocolate  
or the musk emanated by your lover at foreplay  
The old classic by Shelly from college  
The old dead rose inside with memories alive  
A piping hot mug of mocha at six  
or the crushed jasmines of the last one night stand  
 
 

T O U C H  
 

What turns you on  
Your ex-flame's playful fingers  
or that faint brush with a stranger in the train  
or the touch of flaming lips in the rain
Groping-inexperienced hands in the loo  
or slow, methodical thumbs out of the blue  
an experienced masseur on a steamy night
The irresistible spell of touch and go  
The light caress of the new gentle lover  
or the full mouthed affair behind the car
The exploring search causing the explosions inside  
May be the tight hug from someone unexpected  
An old lover's familiar moves down your body  
or the firm hand traveling up inside in a frenzy  
That seething tongue rolling over the earlobe  
or that heavy warm breath on your nape  
 


T A S T E
 


What turns you on  
Addictive chocolate melting on your tongue  
or perfectly brewed coffee on a long evening  
A large gulp of Burgundy wine on the beach
Juicy strawberries tantalizing your senses  
A small butter cube disappearing in moments  
or a perfectly blended Cuban cigar on a slow noon  
May be Mediterranean grapes in between romances
A faint smelling meal of smoked salmon
or a gorgeous looking bowl of fresh lamb  
Utterly inviting kebabs dipped in green chilly paste  
or a regal looking dish of lobsters served with love  
 
 


S O U N D    



What turns you on  
The faint murmur teasing your libido  
The loud gasps filling up the air
or the quivering lips announcing climax
Well it could be the tremulous singing  
or the sonorous voice over the phone
The low moan as fingers travel  
The enticing greeting at the front door  
or the pitter -patter of falling rain
The soft evening breeze thru the garden  
The loud sound of the hard slap on flesh  
or the heavy breathing following suit  
The shrill chirping of birds early morning  
The low whirring of the fan in the dingy hotel room  
A mighty thunder storm
or the beeping cell phone  
or the champagne fizzing out
The low hissing of the serpant
