Mason-Dixon

dividing, between north and south
by a belt of studded leather 
is drawn an imaginary Tangent line 
called the Mason-Dixon

close your eyes and wander 
you won't need GPS 
let your lips and hands roam free 
and discover many delights 

follicles smell of magnolias 
just like the Mississippi trees 
see the pleasure in my eyes 
green as Carolina seas 

savor all of my kisses, 
dripping Virginia maple sugar 
slide your hand down these long limbs 
as soft as Arkansas cotton 

juices flow here sweetly
that taste of Georgia Peach 
come and explore these treasures 
waiting, but within your reach

A lovely Poem ! I am always intrigued by the Mason Dixon line a sort of eccentric folly but so evocative and important in the Civil War.The folly part probably comes from Mason and Dixon who were Brits.
