Clamoring to the top a
precipice unknown as
silk unfurling
a banner adrift
on treacherous currents
carried along by
fierce determination
Passion unreserved
a love unbridled to
embrace a destination
mysteriously laden
sweet as aphrodisiacs
wonderfully laced
with wine’s afterglow
Not a single fruit
tasted nor a single
glass touched
only titillating
emotions encountered
clamoring to the top
precipice unknown
JOURNEY FULFILLED

Renee, loved the sensuality of this poem. Like Neruda in English! Also, the whole climbing metaphor, delicious! (wink) Amy
