in BARE feet
i walk the length
of your
tu lips
grass lush, paths cut
along holy ground
i tip toe
through your
tu lips
bowing reverent, or irr--,
carving covenant poems
on each inhalation
exhaling arias adoration
unleashed i skip, spinning,
swoop swing, fervor fanned
frenzy building, to the brink
where the world melts gutteral
gurgling water down the sink
drain into a kaleidiscope of
single sylables and strobe
light heart beat
moments
cause nothing says
spring like
tu lips.

oh... brilliant.
It needs a few rereads ..
I really like it.
stunning beautiful Brian...one if not my favourite of yours and speaks so of spring and of love....happy April...bkm
spring and love......beautiful.
Sensually cute.
Love the tu parallel themes in this poem. Love the wordplay tu.
Happy Spring tu you!
ah! I love it!
refreshing!
A little modern day "splendor in the grass"? I will never look at tu lips the same....:)
This feels a bit naughty to me, but I LOVE tulips. They are my favorite.
luscious.
Very cute. Tu lips are better than one.
Clever and sweet, Brian.
Brian,
I've been away from your luscious blog for too long. *sigh*
Great wordplay!
In spring a young man's fancy.....turns to tu lips.
Spring, or love, or spring and love. Personally, I like daffodils, but tulips handed to me in a twine of string and brown paper would be just fine...
Tu lips in the garden
tu lips in the path
but the tu lips I love best
are the tu lips in the path...♥♥♥
Love it Brian!

"grass lush, paths cut

Another brilliant write, Brian. So beautifully written...your readers hanging on every individual word.
thank you happygirl...smiles.
Dude, you've got it bad. If there were a cure, I know you wouldn't go looking for it. Obsession, addiction...I guess can sometimes be a good thing. Lucky girl! :)
Lovely word play-- v. clever. I especially like the carving covenant poems stanza. A fine April beginning.
Beautiful words and pic.
Nice, nice, nice.
Happy weekend, jj
From the holy beauty of spring to 'gutteral gurgling water down the sink' you can see beauty in anything and everything. What a gift, Brian! Take care...
Sensual and appealing tribute to spring and to an object of your affection.;)
Have a lovely Saturday dear Brian, here we are suppose to get a taste of summer today.;)

Hi Brian,
All I can say is that Tiny Tim is so jealous of your tip toeing through the tu lips and probably most men are jealous. And most women wish their men could tip toe the way you do.
The tu lip world will never be the same.
God bless.
oh I love this abreviated style! and tu labios senior!

Awww, this one is great! It feels like spring!
I read this one tu times.
Enjoyed it even more the second time around.
=)
"...carving covenant poems
on each inhalation..." <-very nice. Smooth without being slick, and a little playfulness on the tu lips. (I'm really glad you didn't go with dog wood.)
Loved your play on words! Great!

"tu lips" oh Brian, really. Tu twee Still, made me giggle.
You have said it well! Pink, red, yellow, white, lavender tu lips show so many lovely colors and shades as they "death dance" opening, closing completely, and opeing again.
oooh, I love this! Cute...and oh so romantic!
so beautiful, a true melody of Spring I love it Brian, wow
... or tu lovers ...
This fun one needs to be a catchy song!
I agree nothing says Spring like tulips.
When I see them in my florist in January I will buy some and give to friends because it symbolizes hope to me.
This is getting me in the mood for spring for sure. Great fun to read this and share your words with my sweet hubby. I am particularly fond of the "strobe light heart beat
moments".
Splendid!
I love the double entendre, Brian. This was fun!
Lovely, now for some real tu lips. :)
beautiful Brian!
witty sensual and perfect pacing, climax and cadence... wow!
wow. this was brilliant writing I love the tempo and cleanness of it all.
i'm looking forward to spring, and your poem has brought my anticipation greater intensity.

Beautiful Brian..
this is PURE love brian :)
loved it.
you are the most romantic man.
sigh.
Ah, sweet, yet fevered romanticism! The fifth stanza is indeed an orchestral swelling, "frenzy building" until we are left with only the "single syllables" of a heart beat. Love is in the air. Well-played, my friend!
haaaawt!
beautiful
You romantic you, stop it now, or...
Lovely and romantic!
but what about the dandylions :) Beautiful write indeed...as I sit in my corner watching snow fall through my windows :(
Wow, this is erotic as it reaches a climax! Masterful imagery and word play.
Definitely puts me in the mood.... uh, for spring of course. ;) And I really like your double play on words....you do it so well
t(r)uly amazing!
Now it is still to cold here for any of that
Do you want to give frost bite to the cat
Also mind could go in the gutter with this one too
But I'll refrain from being like you
haha another great post
You are such a clever host
First weeks of spring and the fresh bloom of love!! Beautiful!!
Hugs
SueAnn
you sure put a different spin on tip toeing through the tulips dude...I love it :)
beautiful & very clever... I like this a lot.
April is the month of love.

ahhhhh....sigh...
Really beautiful poems, Brian.

Oh, so beautiful! Love is in the air!
Wow! That is amazing!
Hi Brian,
Lovely tribute to spring with beautifully crafted lines with enchanting word pictures.
Have a wonderful Sunday,
Joseph
I missed this one on Friday. But I wish I hadn't. Everyone needs a love poem to inspire them. This one did for me.
Good play on words. I like those tu lips too.
Love it. Romance and words. You really make the combination special.
I smiled from the first word to the last on this one. Heck, I'm still smiling. This is a bit of perfection wrapped in romantic sweetness. :)
"carving covenant poems on each inhalation" = favorite line, I also like the word play, which you seem to be a master of
Loved this...tu-lips, brilliant!
Great thoughts on Spring and love.
All the best,
Betty
beautiful words dear and insiprational thoughts
I'll think of you and your tu lips when I'm working at the Tulip Festival here in just over a week. How would rows and rows of them affect you? Careful now :)
tu lips
how inventive, now I'll definately give them a closer look when I walk by
yes cause nothing says
spring like
tu lips so I put 2 vases of them in house last weekend. Too bad they don't last long inside :(
