when hope springs
Posted: December 21st, 2018, 1:43 pm
how far is too far ?
is hope always within reach
or does it mock us, sit out there
on the hood of our starship
taunting a vision
like an MC Escher drawing,
our fingers coming up empty,
our minds bamboozled again
as we stretch to grab
a handful of air
can hope spring ?
eternally tempting..........
batting her false eyelashes
pouting her wet lips,
red fingernails curling
in sequence, that come-hither
temptation.....wait !
she's looking at me right now,
and as I know all to well
one touch
and I'm back in her arms
is hope always within reach
or does it mock us, sit out there
on the hood of our starship
taunting a vision
like an MC Escher drawing,
our fingers coming up empty,
our minds bamboozled again
as we stretch to grab
a handful of air
can hope spring ?
eternally tempting..........
batting her false eyelashes
pouting her wet lips,
red fingernails curling
in sequence, that come-hither
temptation.....wait !
she's looking at me right now,
and as I know all to well
one touch
and I'm back in her arms
