"SOFT LIPS"
by
Lianne Olive Hennig

Soft lips, and slightly wet,
Warm from trembling, and
A little set apart
To show a glimpse of teeth,
All shadowed white, that yearn
To know the tender bite
Of neck and lips; to trace
A tongue that writhes and dips.

Strong nostrils, flaring now.
Clear eyes below a defined brow -
Eyes of swirling hazel pools
Stoked by fire that never cools.

Soft lips, muzzling down beneath
A damp and tingling brow to
Skim a trail on cheeks ablush, then
Feverishly onward rush to
Nip the neck and stop retreat;
To bring the victim to defeat.
Then, finally, without protest
Soft lips are of soft lips possessed

This is recognition for achievements and skills
too easily forgotten by a society that generally
only values the current/main income earner,
leaving the other to be labelled "just a housewife"
or current occupation listed as "Home Duties"

Lianne has worked as a minor Actor and Extra in Film
and Television, Portrait Artist/Sketcher, factory hand,
