An Enormous Love Letter

Come to me, dear lover. Join me today.

Rub my cinnamon-colored, cocoa-buttered belly –

Swollen with possibility, pregnant with pause.

I, a fertile maiden, want to frolic forever with you.

My sumptuous sapphire locks seduce you.

My emotional, emerald eyes tear with elation.

Ravishing rivers run down my milky neck,

Ruddy apple cheeks, ruby rosebud lips.

Saucy supple hills signal to you.

Yellow, orange, red forests forever

Quell my buried inhibition,

And conceal my naughty bits.

My azure whitecaps wax and wane, wane and wax.

Blustery budding spirals spread down my grassy knolls.

My carnelian fire spouts molten rage from deep within.

Clay mud, silty terra, and salty sand settle my turbulence.

My icy queen chilly disposition sometimes frightens you.

My springtime blossoms seduce you from your caved seclusion.

My summery moods whisper to you, “Vacate from obligations.”

Amber leaves fall, fall, fall next to my jack-o-lantern smile.

Remember this, dear lover: Time is speeding up.

Quick now, quick now … days to months, months to years.

Time’s handles move faster and faster and faster.

Seasons change, bills arrive, and babies are born.

Know: I am your lamb, and you are my shepherd.

Treat me right and treat me well.

Return your love to me, return to me, return to me

So that we may be together One.
