Journey of Words

Apricot, Firenze

Warmed by day breaking In through the shutters Light fur of the skin Curve of the fruit Sweet flesh Crushed in your hand Drips, splashes, runs Onto your belly Down to your thighs You smile, close your eyes Push me lower . n.b. http://www.napowrimo.net Day 24 prompt: Fruit. .

Warmed by day breaking

In through the shutters

Light fur of the skin

Curve of the fruit

Sweet flesh

Crushed in your hand

Drips, splashes, runs

Onto your belly

Down to your thighs

You smile, close your eyes

Push me lower

    Scandalous as hell and delicious, which is the perfect combination – peach and person, how can you go wrong with that 🙂

      Wait, apricot. Sorry, the heat sort of sizzled my brain a bit there. 🙂 Apricots are even better!
