Crushed Velvet
Crushed Velvet
Plunging into
the crystal clear waters
many secrets hiding
under the luscious
sapphire pools
of lonely
indigo shadowed desire
meets with delicious
subaqueous forests
of rich emerald
crushed velvet desire
revealing a haven
of beautiful acceptance
where the starlit silence
of her fairy
childlike devotion
pure and resplendent
in a swirl of melding
this tide pool of loving...
the meridian of the soul

As the others have said a lovely group of words.
A picture of Velvet being crushed by anything reminds me of many things.
A gentle pressure of reclining people a touch of a hand to see if it is really smooth and many things that send out a message that Velvet is unique, and such a joy to touch.
A gem held in its arms letting the Velvet enhance its beauty, so many things,
Yours Ian.T
