Your fingertips glance
Glide press down there
Glissade here yes
Definitely right there
Now your touch
Locks me up
In a prism of colour
Chromatic schema
Red-black-blonde
Linger forever
Jade hazel verdigris
Slate azure golden
Still-point the centre
Slightest impact
Implosion the taste
Of mouths filled
Consumed with star
Light turning inward
Rushing recklessly
Onwards towards
The horizon event
Vanilla honeyed tristesse.

Bonjour tristesse…I love the photo! It’s a perfect statement of the present conjunction of Piscean planets and your wonderful poem, homage to colour and desire.

You do have a way with words. Beautiful language woven into a dreamy romantic piece. Of course with just a touch of melancholy at the end. Perfect.
