hard bristles scrape
last night
from my teeth,
polishing to shine
what is left behind.
hot water washes
all that is between us
down steel circle drains
until we are
all that is between us
wet and naked, no
make up
hairspray
surf wax
cologne
slapped on self
nothing special
except
all that is between us.
and then nothing is.
and then everything.
love covers a multitude
even better than body wash.

Oh, yeah! Nothin' butt the naked truth:-))
there is just something about being naked...
Being naked....ummmm...yes siree! =O
Now, come dance with me back at the Grand Opening....
only love is real, in my opinion.
nothing special

all that is between us.

One of my very favorites of yours!
Hi! Brian, Ronda and Lizzie...
Brian, what a very...revealing piece!
very honest (about things that are sometimes..."hidden") and once again very well-written.
Ronda, LOL!!!
Thanks, for sharing!
DeeDee ;-D
Hubby and I call it skin on skin. We like the feel of fingers on arms, cheek to cheek.
amen
and pass the warshcloth
Skin talking skin. Lovely.
Hard to lie, when naked... At my age it's hard to keep food down..:)
You cover every genre! Honest and naked.
yeah, being naked is cute for everyone,
giggles,
ahhh...air-drying....
there's just somethin' about skin :-)
Another Romantic one.. An Earthy one..
Like the other week.........
Wow.. Beautiful..
So sweet..
You and your wife are blessed with each other..
I thought I closed my blinds!
Amen!
Nice.. :)
I love it when you write love poetry.
How do you do that with 2 young boys? And are you sure you aren't hiding from us that you're really a woman? Ha!
Actually I decided my surge in love poems comes from all the dang testosterone from 3 teenage boys keeping my estrogen menopause on pause....
very very nice work, again, when do you find time? And watch out or you might end up with 3!
p.s.
I don't think I can post mine....
You are such a romantic! I read this to love of my life ....... and he said, "so , should I go brush my teeth?". Yes, dear, and you might be a redneck.......
1) I would love to be a fly that follows you around for a day to see what you world is like and how it might inspire you.
2) Do you believe in donating brain matter to those in need?
Great job. Eloquent. Honest.
:) I'm back and feeling good. Thanks for checking up on me.
Sounds good to me!!! naked and honest!! Works
Hugs

yum. i think i just realized what's making the snow melt. ;)
Nice!
I'm with her Majesty Lisa on this one!
Great job.

As you can see from all comments...words are almost as good as naked. Beautiful.
Beautiful.
Very clever, especially the ending, where nothing becomes everything, and love covers a multitude of the things that could come between.
Great.
Gawd between you and Otin it's enough to make me swoon. Naked? Only if the light's off! But I do endorse brushing of the teeth . . .
It is only few that get to see us the way we are, or we only allow the ones we love to.;)
The way you use words is always so surprising and refreshing.;)

You just slap your cologne on huh? What a man. Cologne should only be slapped, never dabbed.
You know you're naked when the surf wax is gone.
Seriously though.... I really enjoyed this - even more than normal, if that's possible.
Save water shower together. Nicely done again Brian.
always good when nothing is between you! That is a great way to live!
Clean and naked...yum
Shedding all the garbage, what a lovely thought!
Made me all tingly reading that. I should shower now. :o)
were you inspired by Cabo's mentioned pictures for this post?
So mamy nice comments so I will just say...be careful.
Very nice! I am so jealous that you can write so beautifully every day! I struggle to write anything.
Love allows us to see each other bare naked and see beauty in one another.
Always a pleasure to visit Brian.
love as a body wash, i LOVE it!!!!
that was just so Beautiful! wow
I like this. Sexy and clean all at the same time. Nicely done, Brian.
Nice one...
And...you and Lizzie last night? Very nice, too!
This poem is certainly more than skin deep...
I wrote the wrong comment lol, enjoyed this but not as much as you did lol, romance isnt dead :)
Love the naked visuals I had while reading this... also love the comments :)
It's also when we're at our most vulnerable. There's got to be a lot of love.
Excellent! The last lines really reminded me of who I need to call up and hang out with tonight! haha!
"polishing to shine
what is left behind."
I love that!
Beautiful poem Brian.
Hhhmmm....way sexy!lol
Really like it.
Thank you for sharing.
"nothing special
except
all that is between us.
and then nothing is.
and then everything."
I really love this so much.
So sexy.
hugs,
shakira
I like this one a lot. Maybe becasue I think I get it for once.
Wow... Hot stuff, Brian, done well!
I have to agree with you Brian there is something about being naked.
I love the naked truth. And how is that book of love poetry coming along?
That literally captured the naked truth.
Good twist on words.
Totally beautiful Brian. I just loved this.
PG
so raw, so true......love this Brian and "all that is between us" is very special when the experience is shared with someone special......:-) Hugs
Wonderful!
oh yeah.
Blushing here....
wonderful writing, Brian!
Whew!
There's something about being naked and being true! I for one, always use the expression "I've stripped naked in front of you" to tell someone that I'm honest with him/her. I don't know, I just say that automatically!
Brian, you are a great blogger.
This is really good. So real and true.
A perfect place to reconnect and hold each other. One of my favorites.
This I love.
Wow.
naked and exposed on every level ...
The way it was designed to be from the beginning.
oh i like this very much, the stripping away of any and all pretense.
