I Am Silk and Lace
His calloused hands
and muscled core are
like leather piercing
earth and sky,
always to take new lands.
I am silk and lace and
soft floral smells over
grassy wetlands.
I give the hug of a child
remembering her father.
My hands hold tight
to strong shoulders
smooth and young.
My palms are warm against skin.
My fingertips are
desperate to hold.
My hips lead my most
treasured parts toward earth
with hints of a coming dance.
I become light and wet,
hidden in his embrace.

I said what I felt when I read your poem.
Thank you for making me travel in the sea of desire with your words and explore the feeling of ecstasy in its letters

With its mix of metaphors of the body and landscape I sense an air of the Song of Solomon, for example in these verses:

My hips lead my most

First stanza made me think of Aragon from Lord of The Rings or even a Knight from the Round Table. The rest drew me to the sound of a symphony played as a couple does the dance of romance.
