Alphabe-Thursday/Flash Friday 55: The Letter X

exposing heart

imbibing  

love’s elixir

extinguishing thirst…

becoming

unexpectedly intoxicated

with

exquisite desire…

extending hand,

transfixed by touch,

exploring,

exhuming…

extracting,

exposing

long exiled

emotions…

breath catches,

excitement builds

coaxing

explosive passion…

detoxing in matrix

of exceptional love;

exhausted,

flummoxed…

without words

to express,  

to examine

the inexplicable…

this complex

existence

caught within

paradoxical vortex.

Sensational Haiku Wednesday-Steam

Temperatures rise.

Roiling, boiling...pressure builds.

Released with a scream!

Could this be passion?

Or simply a pot of tea

left on the burner....

You decide.

Flash Friday 55: Passion's Call

Passion prepares a bountiful feast,

piercing the flesh of sacrificial beast.

Sinner falters, stumbles, then falls

towards bounty’s sweet siren call.

But is this of heaven or trickery of one

who tempts the naïve, for souls to be won?

Ah, but morsels so sweet, and savory too,

can only be found in love of You.

I am participating in Flash Friday 55. This weekly meme is brought to you by G-Man over at Mr. Know it All. The object is to write a story or prose in exactly 55 words. Come join us and link your 55 over in Mr. Know it All's comment section.

Haiku Wednesday

This week’s theme is: Passion

Theme:  PASSION

Whipped, stripped and beaten.

Nailed to the Cross...The 4th Cup.

The Passion of Christ.

Dying for our sins,

Body pierced. Blood, water flow.

The heavens cry out!

In tomb hewn from earth

He was placed. Disciples mourn.

Are we foresaken?

No! For 3 days hence

Our beloved Lord arose!

The birth of our faith!
