Be Wayward with Me

Two challenges in two days. I’m on a roll!! But like most good rolls, it’s all downhill. This one from Sammi who asks for something of 77 words. One of those words has to be wayward.

*****

You think me wayward

But on any day I could be

Just misdirected

Sometimes suspected

Of worse

But with this verse

I stand corrected

An attempt

At contrition

Submission

To a higher power?

Like a flower

So soon

In bloom

Reborn

Like a rose

That knows

Of the thorn

Making one suspicious

Of the delicious

Poison in the tips

These swaying hips

A dance

A chance

To be played with

Decayed with

Lust

Mistrust

Disgust

Can’t you see?

A way

To be wayward

With me

*****

  1. Misdirection is magic like the perfume of the rose, a thorny attraction, but a proper bee can lust without blood drawn and help to fertilize the rose hips of Rose the wayward Lass who serves Scotch on a rocky shore with a dangerous dance of seduction.
