Wow

Read this through 3 times now. Admire how you manage to paint the pictures with your strange grammatical structures. Ethereal as well as primal in the uncontrollable sexuality of her surroundings, and how it reacts to her.

Love it!

Hi Cynthia this is so evocative - water on skin makes the reader feel like a Peeping Tom. Guess many local lakes are legend rich - locally we have something called the Silent Pool complete of course with the legendary maiden myth.

'Folding her clothes over her mind' a metaphor perhaps for post hanky panky guilt! Yes, of course, re read, your added comments which do imply that.

If this poem was on before - apologies. Sorry about two poems one right after the other, but I didn't want to let the category just slip by, as I did with the voting last time.

I've always thought 'goblins and fairies' are euphemisms for 'libido'.
