The African Glow and Beauty

So slick, so brown, baked and bright colour and flesh, bordered by voluptuous curves. You’ve made praises of you beyond a man-made stuff; on you alone, craft, art and sexuality, together mold. Your every action, movement and word are sprinkled with little erotic flakes. The provokers of nature-bending desires cling unto your waist like colourful beads. Chocolate steams coming out of your inner refuge give sweetness like pieces of sugarcane in coconut water. Converting every attention towards you to the longing of a voracious chew. Heightened temperatures and senses make any soul cough when seeing your bare carrying soft elements so bold. Sight of you is honey for passions so tough, they consume, exaggerate breath sounds and never grow old. Sketches of you even from amateurs are never rough and the layers beneath your skin are the purifiers of Gold. Matured and serious young adults have faith in love but to your passionate affection, I’m a complete extremist.
