Perigee: tint me your shade of red
Moonlight palpitations;
rich soil embraced her loving touch,
cultivated a lust.
was she lemongrass swaying from the clay ?
rosemary, sprawling for my roots?
set a fever under my skin,
I knew she had the remedy
somewhere between her wisteria and irises.

Thank you so much RoseJasmine. I was hoping to see your happy face around here again.

I love that this is tagged Pagan. Right up my street.
The second part is interesting because of the herbs used. The useage of lemongrass in herbalism is very much seen to have purification properties where as Rosemary very much has properties of remembrance. So those two things to weave into your own imagery especially between two people and their histories is just beautifully done.
Gorgeous write. Very earthy and that speaks to me. Thank you for sharing.

I was unaware of the Pagan symbolism, although I do enjoy that lesson learned... that's always a terrific takeaway, IMO. I have a floral, herb fetish, so to speak, that's what I was drawn by initially but rereading with the additional information and the comments to add to my own thoughts, leaves me in a wonder....
This is a bit of exquisite, I believe.
I feel lucky to have come back and reread.... sometimes I don't see the forest for the trees.
