sun's melt

open slow a wrinkle on a line
tantalize my taste awaken with time
remove this lid silver from birth
to reveal golden kisses of sun sweet mirth
peaches sliced packed so neat
bathed in syrups ambrosian bequeath
texture felt as fingers caress
one just plucked to tastes its breath
soft to tip of tongues first touch
electricity tingles of sugars first rush
can was warmed by late summer sun
passes its warmth from peach to tongue
as i slow lick long one knife edged treat
cleave it t'ween tongue and teeth
access its flesh deep beneath
granting its nectar sudden release
an i dream....
of packed to a can
of each slice as large as i
as its flesh warmed by sun
its softness cupping my harder skin
buoyed in syrup sweet and yet
more of satin its touch than stickyess
of thrusting my hands between each slice
feeling the softness tickle my sides
and i awake to look with such sadness felt
of a can empty of late suns melt
then i feel a slow beginning smile
for an ad that i had pulled from a file
of a sale on peaches and the cost of love
of two cans bought for the price of one
