slumbering thoughts

 blissful thoughts of a night so long ago

lovers hands that knew to caress and show

feelings tender, endearing and encompassing

to wake her slumbering seductiveness, possessing.

pure of any diversion be her desire

with his touch the wish be, to acquire

a woman who would surrender complete and show him how

to let go of everything else and be in the 'now'.

inhibitions being dusted aside

any unnecessary formalities deride

a night where passion burnt and swallowed them both

the setting of the last star, the rising of the dawn, they did loathe.

and gently untangling,unwillingly they did

farewell for the moment each other bid

for the call to meet and and a new chapter start

no longer than a day, to be apart .

the waves of passion swept and carried

two minds desirous to please each other married

in yearnings centuries old

that knew every time they met, to unfold.

crest after crest a new high met

deeper the roots to be satiated set

eventually to walk away and breath

a wondrous liaison shared , best in fantasy land to leave.
