Picture by Alan Ayers

* * * *

Staring at the embers
In the afterglow of love
I remember the feel of your body
And how we fit like hand in glove

The sweat of your body covered me
As I was drowning in desire
Like a flame burning in the embers
Without a match you lit my fire

My flame of love burns brightly
Whenever you call my name
Like a magnet I am drawn
Just like a moth towards a flame

We have climbed the heights of passion
And conquered the highest peak
To the end of the earth I'll follow
For your love is all I seek

I am in motion
I am blue
Love is an ocean
I'm anchored in you
- Shawn Mullins

Sue I just love the picture. It's so soft and romantic and makes me want to dance with my Hon.

Nice job of writing. Your love poems are something to behold.
