and all that Jazz..

a slender voice
low, smoothly coated
glossy with a hint of a purr
ripples its way through the song
it begins slowly
twining itself around the listener,
a sandy lining to a silk dress
brushing up against the skin,
it entices both the wearer and the observer
confidence grasped
the notes take color
streaks that stroke the imagination
taking flight
and then at its peak--an ivory tip tinged with gold,
it pulls you into a state of longing
and slipping back down it settles
dust that alights all over your body
but you are ignorant to the feel of it
only aware of the enchantment you were under
