Warm Honey

Today at Imaginary Garden with Real Toads, the writing prompt is sensation.


It’s a slow

warm honey tingle

spiraling up

then down

like lava

lamp bubbles,

an aching quiver—

gently surging

swelling and then

you touch me…

    Love it… it’s the sensation of expectation that is the strongest…

      True. Where would we be without expectation and imagination?

      Thanks, Kerry! I struggled with that for quite a while. Wasn’t sure if people would view lava bubbles in that way, or if it was just me. :-)
