Silky

It is the sound of the Middle East

A pitch not found here;

Something seductive

Something more silky

Than what my skin has touched before.

It comes by surprise, at the end of a Playlist

With no name

No way to find what song is this?

It sings to all my pores

That open to absorb it

Like the Ocean sand takes the wave.

It’s Yellow, so Yellow!

And I find myself in an open field

Wild Flowers all around me.

The smell of turquoise caresses my neck

and I long to hold

The hand that waits for mine.
