Analysis of Sunday morning
Sultry Sounds,
Shatter sleeping silence.
Sunshine slowly streams-
Seams of scattered sheet seas.
She’s standing, splendid, Singing,
Stolen slacked shirt,
Sausage skillets simmering-
Shimmering skin-
Sin secluded Somewhere.
Sitting, swirling spoons,
Soon soothing shivering souls,
Sweet,
Simple,
Sumptuous,Smooth silk sliding-
Siding sugared squares,
Shares Sunday sanctuary
Prayers.
Sending still sunlight,
Sight submerged, staring,
Secret- She saved someone.
Sun streaked smile,
Surrendering sadness as sentiments soar
Sparrows stealing sorrows, singing songs,
Saying,
Staying,
Sealing,
Stealing,
Sharing,
Morning Kisses.
