Romance

You sway her
in dreams you dance
your lips her desire
wait for your glance

Splendid in fabric
where whispers linger
to feel the rhythm
of mood through fingers

From your dictionary
open you taught her
of stars upside down
and ships on water

The moon always there
the voyeur who gazes
catching the moment
in shadowed embraces

The music shimmies
dislocates to blaze
an eyelid soft
on velvet she lays

And there in blooming
waits withering light
to see your grace
step into her night.

sounds like a wonderful romance to me, beautifully penned.

"seeing through your eyes my Dear, is incredible!" -(said above) to do that AND have verses so small with images so great is phenomenal. I've never felt so speechless

Shadows of touch
Shimmers of kiss
Taking two...
       to twilights bliss

Cleansing of wakes
Caressing the shore
Breaking against...
       fears solid door

Ripples of tide
Raging against fear
Stroking soft...
       the one I hold dear

==================

Superb writing my friend but that has become mere routine for you long ago as we all know.
