Awakening you
a feather’s touch upon a curve,
mayhaps a kiss ever light..
Or just to savor the beauty
of your rest..

Listening...
To each gentle breath of breathe
as a lid flutters in dream flight.
Upon the arch of silken spine or
the curve of tremble’s thigh.

As shadows trace the wall in dance
of silhouetted form.   A midnight’s call
will then perchance be more than just,
than just the shiver’s norm...

This moan that comes to my lips
as eyes do trace the form in lace.
Of gentle swells and fragrance light..
Of silk and lace in lie one’s face.

Yet now, as light does cast the glow
of blush upon the cheeks...
I sit in awe, this treasure shown.
As hours become the night of day...
when again... in dreams she speaks....

It is rare when a reader can physically feel the intense emotions and the touch of a work of art. So be it. ThisDiamond
