Brown Sugar

Free Verse Poem

By Aspen Marie Published 8 months ago 1 min read
Photograph: mine

I wish I was brown sugar

Sweet foundation

Of every baked good

Worth eating

Soft, pliable

Sparkling grains

Catching the light

Ephemeral particles

Forged into something new

And delicious

Melting on the tongue

Rich molasses, caramel savoured

Perfume is nose’s dessert

Poetic redolence

Whenever enfolded

In an embrace

A select few

Pull back a fraction

They inhale

Nose pressed to

My delectable neck

Drawing down

From ear to clavicle

The most

Pleasurable sensation

On the planet
