Honey by Debbie Radford


Listen Later

Honey Debbie Radford Honey pools in the dip of my waist.It flows like warm sunlight down my thighs.Every curve a golden river, every step a supple pour.
Like a honeycomb, my body is textured and endless, mailable like bees wax, with threads of dripping sweetness curling around my hips.
My skin gleams like amber in the late afternoon- something one cannot help but savor.
I wear the curves of my body like sugar silk- soft, lustrous, and shimmering in a sunshine touch.
I am the sap of my creation, overflowing in luxury I melt into the depths of my form, as smooth as nectar's fall-slow and sure. Each layer of me ripened in richness, and oozing in flavor.

Write After: National Poetry Month with One Poem Only

Write After is a way to encourage poets to listen and write, and use National Poetry Month to highlight how listening to poetry makes us better poets. I know I write the best when I’m surrounded by beautiful poetry–it’s part of the reason I created this podcast, and I want to encourage others to share this practice.

We'll get started in April. You can share to #WriteAfterOPO.
