dancing 'neath the moon

0 posted 2006-07-10 12:47 PM


On sheets still fresh from washing
hung in summer sun to dry
moonlight glimpsing through
a window open to the sky

We lay, we lie, together,
in the moonlight, you and I

Our limbs, they are entangled
In a sweet lover's embrace
Familiar lines of muscle and spine
Deftly dancing digits trace

We lay, we lie together,
heart to heart and face to face

Our souls, they sing as one now
In love's own perfect key
My heart pens the lyrics
While yours thrums the melody

We lay, we lie, together
in perfect harmony

This Touched me in the area of my heart.  I see you understand how souls unite when love is there.  Very good poem that shows wisdom.

aww thanks much for all your wonderful comments -- I have no idea where this poem came from. Well I -know- where it came from, but that's not even on the same side of the emotional rainbow as the original ending. I write my poems backwards, always think of the ending lines first, then have to find the middles and beginnings. Think that's the first I've actually done beginning to end, all in order and stuff

Apparently, after the mass exodus of my muses several months ago, one of them found her way back last night *grins*
