[slm] hope you guys like this.....there's a famous quote that goes
~Modesty is the beauty of the woman~ not sure who said it, but it inspired the following....  :-)

In the obscurity of the night
The blazing flames conspire
Her shadows continue to play
In the shape of his burning desire

Day upon day she dances
Yet coveted by her shield
They know they cannot touch her
For her boundless beauty is sealed

He longs to rest his fingers
And expose what lies inside
Yet the threat of her kindling crackle
Urges his desire to subside

She flutters in the moonlight
Her flames gracefully prance
Never exposing the secret beneath
Her eternal elegant dance

As the night begins to darken
He sees her in his dreams
Her movement ignites his hunger
He realizes nothing’s the way it seems…

What was once a glowing ember
Becomes a fervent fire
Always bewildering the curious onlookers
while letting her flames surge higher...


Feel free to play 'critic'... :)  [wlm]
