I Like Skirts That Live

by abracadabra   Nov 1, 2007


I like skirts that float around my knees
Like cobwebs.
I like skirts that chase when I run,
That dance with me,
That rebel in the wind,
And cling to me in the rain.
I like skirts that catch the sun,
Tease my shadow,
Sulk prettily while I sit
And tempt me to rise and move.
I like skirts that are
Smoothed in tension,
Stroked in tenderness,
And clutched in passion.
I like skirts that beckon from the cupboard
Until they live on me again.
