Fashion Stain
You and I together
linked in forever
Following the sienna sunset
at Clearwater Beach
Roller-coaster waves
as background noise
Too many pictures
striking a pose
Ink on my skin
sprinkled with sticky sand
complimenting your name
alive on my hand
Dye me
trace me with marks
dress me with henna
my new favorite
Fashion Stain
Designed with scrolls
and flowers like extensions
from my veins because
that's how you make me feel
Owning my femininity
with dots and freckles
Phoenician art whispering
to me in scribbles
Roller-coaster hands
on my hips
Too many pictures
of my lips
Dye me
bless me with marks
kiss me with henna
my new favorite

The poem sounds free, liberating, sexy and romantic all at the same time, and the henna tattoo is amazing.
This was absolutely lovely, my sweet friend.

Hey Betty!
I literally just left a comment on your latest write. LOL
I've never been to Clearwater Beach, and it was fun. I think I shocked the hell out of Mark when I dove into the water headfirst.
Then I literally turned into a spider monkey on his back putting him in a choke hold. I wasn't prepared for the power of the waves once I got to the deeper end of the ocean. hahaha
I got the henna tattoo afterwards - I'll never forget it. She was so talented. Finished it in like 15 minutes. She's trying to get her own art show going. She was doing henna tattoos in her spare time. So inspiring!
And yes, I'm extra chatty cause you called me a sweet friend:)
Stay awesome Betty!!

Dear A,
I enjoyed living vicariously through your adventures. The tattoo is very pretty and the very thought of jumping waves and being at the beach in the ocean sounds baptismal and glorious. Fabulous beautiful write full of imagery and love. H🌷

Jumping the waves was awesome but I wasn't brave enough to open my eyes under the water. LOL

Hey W6
It's my first henna. I'm doing it again next time I see a booth.
I don't think I let it set long enough because I got hungry from all the swimming. Grabbed some pizza and smudged some areas while I was eating. LOL
So happy you felt the cheekiness!
Love that word:)

After the storm there has to be some sunshine right?
This past year and a half was up and down.
I'm finally at a stable healthy place. It's so worth the
struggle I went through. It makes everything else
taste like cake:)
thanks for stopping by Joe!
Each new day is magic amigo
You just gotta find it:)

All of this from a henna stain! I really enjoyed how you saw the beauty beyond the stain and described how it was an extension of your own veins.
Just lovely work, Adelphina.

Hi Ahavati:)
There are so many forms of art as expression.
Drawing is a skill I severely lack in. LOL
But she was amazing.
I was so impressed with all the details. The small dots and scrolls on my skin. I had to put Mark's name on my hand. It just felt right.
She was so still, and fluid like in her movements with her small paint brush.
It's a form of expression I truly admire.
Just like Mark:)

What a great time we had. Of course!
Just remember when we are together full time, and being less nice for some reason, we have writes to remind us who we really are together.
What a great history we are working on, into our future.

I love the idea of writing history baby!
We are our own docuseries. LOL
I'm basking in the present cause it feels so wonderful to feel loved. You are great at it.
I like the idea of reading our writes rather than you threaten me with that freaking squirt bottle!!
Cause it will be war buddy:)
Love you honey!

This poem was artfully crafted pure bliss. You married your femininity with the henna in a swirling treasure of a poem. The playful wonder of getting your first henna is made into a poem of enchanted joy. Poems like this remind me of what poetry is all about. The sunshine in your words is cause for celebration of life and all that it can be.

Hey amigo
I've been wanting to get one for a while. It was a little kiosk outside of one of the stores. She was so talented. I admire that kind of vision and art.
It won't be my last! I just need to be patient and not move to fast.
I got hungry and ate. I think I smudged it a little. LOL
celebrating life is a must. It's all in the details amigo:)
thanks for the RL!
