Woman Of The Afternoon
Perfume rises from the Garden, And spins a halo around her room.
Scented flowers for her demeanor.
The Clock on the mantel strikes four. Her lover appears through the door.
She says:
"For you, I have dressed as a bride. My desire is to burn you inside."
She rises to take his caress, Cascading ripples through her Diaphanous dress.
In the languid heat Of the afternoon, Their love melts all The Stars and the Moon
And the sensual Kiss of the light, sparks a vision in The eyes of the Groom,
Of shuffling feet In eternal procession, locked forever, In a secret dimension of temptation Redemption and sin,
And the cries and The songs from the street calling the Woman That he came to meet.
Guapa Maria! guapa, guapa Maria.

Thank you all.. This is an old poem I wrote back in 2003 whilst in Spain.. During Easter week there are many processions. I was inspired by one.
