Velvet

Velvet slips around my fingers
as hard to catch
as a shimmering snake.
Velvet tastes silky on my tongue 
with just the right touch of
indecisive.
Velvet has a certain touch
that rubs on the pads of my fingers as if to say,
Rub,
Rub,
Rub.
Velvet is tricky
yet beautiful, 
clad in velvet,
you deserve respect 
for you have conquered the impossible feat
of velvet.
