This indeed was a great double tanka, Gypsy. I liked your dual pictures because they showed the man with the bedroom eyes and your delightful fruit. This was well done and greatly enjoyed. Blessed Be n Hugs!!!

Exceptional

I got scorched a little reading this poem, but it was worth it. The food references were absolutely perfect. I don't think poetry can get any better than this one. Great job writing it.

Well, this one had some heat coming off of it. The choice of food and sustenance made me think about those bodice ripper novels from the seventies and eighties. Thos was good, sensual writing. Gretchen

You sure know how to invoke the senses of smell and taste to describe the passion of lovers. I liked the "vanilla" and "plums" and the "golden salty skin" to enhance the feelings!

Thank you, big sister.

BTW, micaela went to see the house and she likes it. I'm praying we get it. It's very close to the hills It's only half a mile to church. :)

It is very clever to liken your partner to food. After all, most of us live to eat (rather than eating to live) so it is good to link pleasures together. kay.
