Bare, Now and Then

Standing unclad, completely bare
throughout the cold I kept you there
for hungry eyes to stop and stare

spring's shift
kicking in
your bud

larcenous looks, crows sit and stare
hesitantly at first, but now laid bare
at the soft white of your underwear

summer's hope
blossoms into
your tips

splendid, emerald green outerwear
envelopes your limbs just everywhere
so lurking crowds might stay and stare

autumn's guests
rave about
your cherry

red with flush, ripe in body, so they dare
picking your lush rhapsody without care
making me blush that I agreed to share

winter came
all the same

you're bare
