Cover image for post Sugar Toes ....., by xlachrymose

xlachrymose in Poetry & Free Verse

Sugar Toes .....

suck the glittering marrow from my bones

tulle bows and ballerina toes

warm, soft, pink

skin, smooth, ink

plié cliché

sweet

sweat

sugar toes dancing a duet

tulips and two lips

rhyme rhythm

roses and touching noses

curtsy courtesy

heartbeat

quick feet

lullaby beat

(K.M.M.)
