Gentle breeze flutters voile curtains
as wizened arms embrace tenderly.
Daytime slips into night
as apricot sun colors fading sky.

I enjoyed your poem as much for what you didn’t say as what you did. Your poem is on the art side of subtle. Subtle as the breeze that stirs that curtain. Wonderful!

Oh my…I wrote the gentle breeze/curtains in my OLN poem before I read this. Soul sisters, kindred spirits…or it’s just a summer thing.

I too like the apricot sky. In the summer I sleep with the window open and let the curtains dance in the breeze.

Nothing better than sleeping with fresh air! The curtains dance — sort of like the puppy’s paws in its dreams 🙂
