Like a fruit of a thousand layers
Peeling off each is the fun part
Each one more fragrant than the last
More enticing than the former
Subtly revealing
Bitterly teasing
Seductively beckoning
To bite
suck
and swallow
Taste the juices and smile
Bask in the purity
Clear message
Of my love for you --
This gift of life --
Sweetly melting
In your mouth.
