What Do I Want From You

Neville

What Do I Want From You

 

What do I want from you

Now you are gone away

 

I want to chase that mint

Around your mouth

With my tongue again

 

I want to trace my name

On your shoulder blade

With my thumb again

 

I want to probe and peek

Play hide and seek and to

Locate that long lost crumb again

 

These are but a few of the things

I want from you

Now you are gone away

    A fine write N. Erm is this about Polo mints? heehee.

    • Neville

      I will leave that up to you, we all have our favourites, dont we .. thank you for checking in and considering my scribbles... Neville

      • orchidee

        I suspect I may swoon if I look in to this further - the mints and other stuff! lol.

      • Fay Slimm.

        So many intimate memories belong to those left alone when love goes away - - a poignant feel to this read Neville.

        • Neville

          a visit most welcome Fay.. many thank you's for leaving such an insightful and reasoned response... Cheers, Neville

        • Michael Edwards

          When love departs - thankfully I married my first love and we are still together and still in love but nonetheless I recognise this fine write.

          • Neville

            thank you, you are a credit to your species sir...

          • sylviasearcher

            The repetition works well to create a sense of longing. Though I don't think I have experienced the things you write of. Beyond the folly of my own imagination.

            • Neville

              thank you sylviasearcher.. an opinion much appreciated & true...

              oh' if only I could teach thee
              what joy there might be had
              but when it comes to folly
              I am such a naughty lad.................Neville

              • sylviasearcher

                I think you seen very well behaved 🙄

                • Neville

                  how kind... are there many reprobates here then

                  • sylviasearcher

                    Only me!
                    I think there was one once but he was burned at the stake.

                    Only joking. If I keep replying maybe you'll get 1000 points soon?

                    • Neville

                      maybe..

                      • sylviasearcher

                        Definitely maybe
