to be fancied

 

and take liberties

have liberties returned

all consenting secret

 

summoned

with those well known eyes

or even only just discovered

means of sudden spark

 

a brush by

and the fellow feeling

 

swig to share

the sly suggestion

instance tongue entanglement

no further need of words

 

I think you all know where we’re from

 

‘rudeness ensued’ then one might say

for others it’s ‘bring me a paper bag’

 

come to me, come with me too

 

sad joy of after, go again

languidly, a little languish

strike a pose

 

to be captured and still in hot pursuit

taken to heart, so vanish

 

a curl-up under the love beam then

 

petted, preened

 

to soften a world’s rough edges so

 

might have made off often

but trusted back

 

chased in and out of dreams

 

these three little birds

or silently

 

lit by smile

and blessedly

 

a touch-and-go – that’s life
