Much like me, this dreary day

Looks are deceiving

Crystal cloves, unlike any other

A little spice will enhance your food

Best to use them quite sparingly

They put you in an amorous mood

Just a touch, a pinch or two

That’s all that’s really needed

To turn around a boring night

Expectations will be exceeded

Colors, of the rainbow, me
Open wounds, I let you see
Disguised as happy, tis my plight
Ever changing, with the light
Red, the anger, sees my fear
Addresses everything, unclear
Indigo shades, have me crazed
Never ending, obsidian days
Blue, the mood, my heart displays
Orange, deep, my mind transcends
When my emotions arc, a rainbow bends

Rude Mood ~ An Unromantic Tuesday – #poetry

It started out quite innocently
A conversation they had over dinner

Nothing was said nicely, nor eloquently
And no one would come out the winner

Name calling commenced, round the table
It got uglier as time went on

Each one got their own special label
The lines in the sands, had been drawn

Back and forth, it went for hours
Until hunger won out, and they ate

The next day, the misses got flowers
The next day, was one day too late

Let’s set the mood, my sweetest one

Candle’s flame sparks passion’s fun

A rose, so sensual, scents of the night

Desirous longings, take us to heights

Fulfilling each other, without a sound

Just our heartbeats, an echo, profound

We don’t need one day, to live these emotions

Yes! We have each other, our forever devotion
