Bronzed Secrets


 

Nubian queen, magic goddess
eyes dark and deep, as nile nocturne

blackthorn rosebud, passion’s secret
mysteries dreamed, fantasies craved

earthen lustwitch, molten ardor
scarlet scorching, sultry vision

secrets forged in bronze fire midnight
wanton temptress, my dream desired

  1. Santana’s Black Magic Woman holds a lot of memories for me. …light years ago when I was a young carefree girl dancing at Poppies in Bali…

    1. Wow that sounds so cool Rall. Dancing at Poppies in Bali. I have been all over the three major countries on the North American continent, East <> West, North <> South, by car and by motorcycle — but never anyplace exotic like Bali! Sounds romantic… 🙂 Carlos really takes his performance on this video to an ecstatic level! WOW!

    1. I think my ledger is likely net zero with regard to broken hearts — so I probably got what I gave over the span of my life. Especially when I factor in my decades as a singer in rock’n’roll bands. 🙂
