After

So relaxed
after sensual sumptuous feast
and blithe excitation
her simple touch of hand on cheek
allaying all fears of night
and coming of prosaic day
Spoon children
still coupled in seamless beauty
a passionate urgency
replaced with kindly yearning
A lover's legacy in lingering kiss tastes
Paris and Helen in attainable purity
He sweeps away her secrets
She dusts his dreams with sparkling vows
air permeated with scent of amour
they cling
they sing sigh cries
in forever-spells of love
