Mary
Christopher Gordon Williams 1953 (Hobart)
It would be scary
Love without Mary.
Life would be bland, not varied,
If she left, crossed the Ceri.
Silky smooth & tender to touch,
I would certainly miss her much.
Interest in romantic love renewed,
Giving & receiving all that is due.
Kisses hungrily devoured,
Life is so sweet, not sour.
Caressing in all the right spaces,
Taking us to all the sacred places.
