Jacklyne Has Shoulder-Length Dark Hair

September 1, 2020

Dear Subscriber:

Each week we examine a theme from a variety of points of view. The theme for this week is women and love.

I welcome comments on my poems at https://nicholasgordon.blogspot.com.

A name poem for a woman whose too-obvious allure gets in the way of love:

Jacklyne has shoulder-length dark hair,
A dimple on each cheek, hazel eyes,
Come hither in her smile and in her walk,
Kisses poised like jaguars in her talk,
Licentiousness stark naked in her sighs.
Yet nights of tenderness for her are rare.
No man has faith that she could really care,
Even as she strips off her disguise.
