the tease
of life,
the sugar
the salt,
a kiss a wink,
the slight
touch
of hand.
a whispered
word,
a moon aglow
in
the sweet
black night.

About Me
- Stephen Chute
- west springfield, virginia, United States
- these are all FICTIONAL stories and characters and are in no way representative of any real experiences in my or anyone else's life. any similarities are purely coincidental, except for the dog poems.

I like this poem. Don't really understand the justification of "in" on a line by itself. Your line breaks confound me sometimes. Just saying. I think the rhythm would be nicer to just have
"in the sweet black night."
All on one line.
