St Valentine’s Mass – A Quadrille

In the valley of my Breasts,

You kiss your desire

For me

On the mountain of my Belly,

You nuzzle your respect

For me

Between the plateau of my Thighs,

You caress your awe

Of me

Upon my feet you worship

Love and life

Today is February 14th so I thought it appropriate to share this today even though it’s late for De Jackson’s Monday Quadrille at dVerse featuring the word “Kiss” and early (at least for me! 😁) for Patrick’s Pic and a Word Challenge #174 – Valley.

This sensuous poem is not my usual style. As a mom, first and foremost, this aspect of my being is usually lost under layers of laundry, piles of dishes and miles of after- school chauffeuring.

One aspect of my husband that I am most thankful for is that he hasn’t forgotten this part of me. He finds me under all those layers and reminds me that I am still a desirable woman; that because I have brought life into this world – into his world – that it makes me more beautiful, more wanted, more than enough. So this Valentine Quadrille is dedicated to TKD for remembering and loving all my changing topography. ❤️❤️

  1. love how you use your love for nature to show how beautiful you are seen by your man, linking the two is beautifully poetic. you are beautiful and am glad he shows you and gives you that respect.
