Shakespeare's Monkeys

Infinite Monkeys. Infinite Typewriters.

More in Words, paradoxes, metaphors...you name it they all come alive in poetry or prose.

New Clothes for my Bathroom (a sonnet)!

for Leanne's sonnet challenge...ta da!

Shower curtain hung, frills ruffles and lace
Black cherry candle’s aroma sets mood
Silky bubble bath, no this won’t be lewd
Sink deeply in warmth, a very good place.
A cold glass dripping water, light sweet wine
Romantic book of poems, I am alone
Relax, enjoy, rarity in my home
At last I’m allowed to softly unwind.
Big fluffy towel so soft on my skin
Luxurious comfort to aching soul
Baby oil glistens under pale lights glow
Who knows when I might get this chance again.
Always someone else to consider here
Precious moments alone can be so dear.

*wild applause*

 

(though deep down I was hoping for something lewd!)

sorry:(, I just thougt lewd was such a good off rhyme for mood! I see what I can whip up in the 'lewd' department.

Many thanks for the applause, we all need a little of that from time to time. LOL 

----- oops, I think I must have made a wrong turn...




I am orbiting, I don't know where, but I am orbiting something!

"something lewd" sounds like a good title, eh?  Maybe I'll beat you to it!

Absolutely lovely... ahhh... if only my bathroom weren't full of toys   In a couple of places I lose the iambs but that's due to pronunciation differences so I'll stay quiet about that, it's very nicely done Rene.

Thank you Leanne, I had to hide the toys as I am raising my 6 yr. old grandson (lol) and the toys overtake me on a daily basis all over my house. This was fun to write and I have been playing with form all day (getting ready for that next poetry class). 

----- could someone turn the world back over, I'm getting dizzy!
