Sublime love
On a sultry Summer night
with silks adorning my body
you come into my chamber
and gently brush my hair
away from my eyes
I raise my coy face
to gaze upon your countenance
sensing your breath
increasing its rhythm
as each love filled moment passes
Your arms embrace me
and there is a rising passion
like white water rapids
gushing through your body
making your skin flush
and you kiss me softly at first
but then with more purpose
You lay me down
on scented sheets of satin
An open window
allows the flow of a steady breeze
to stealthily intrude into our room
There is but enough moonlight
to show the shadowy curves of your arms
shining like sculptured marble
as they hover over me
in love’s protective charm
You kiss and cherish me in silence
as you journey
from North to South
becoming one with my spirit
consummating our love
once more
in sublime ecstasy
Knowing that such an act
is a communion of souls
an understanding of minds
playing to the rhythmic sound
and synchronising beat
of loving hearts.
