When I see you at a distance
my heart starts to smile
and I wish to be held tight
in your arms, lips on lips,
and I wish to talk and talk
tell you a zillion stories
of all my millions of
past births and rebirths,
But when I near you, aroused
my lips go dry, throat parched
deep in soul and body I feel wet,
I sprout like a spring in the monsoon
I sprout like the spring in April.
I wish the odour of my sweat rouses you
to have you throbbing inside me
pounding me in fierce thrusts
your hands squeezing my breasts
I would nibble at your tiny nipples
bite at the matted hair on your chest
hide my face in your sweaty armpits
revel in your sensuous intoxicating smell
I would live inebriated days and nights
remain in your arms throughout
bear your weight on my breasts
lying spread on my back
I would feel your breath and lips all over me
and between my parted thighs
I would in return tease you with my tongue
my polished smoothly cut fingernails
and squeeze you between my lips
and drain you of your last drop.

I sprout like a spring in the monsoon I sprout like the spring in April." in love, every woman does
The process of love making has so charmingly been put to words!
There is a Mnemosyne in the heart of every woman, passionate and lustful, as there is a Zeus who covet older women as partners in every boy…. But, that is sheer biology
The first stanza provided me enough substance to comprehend the entire poem! A fantastic piece of poetry! !
