A minute past midnight,
the full moon aglow,
they meet where the stream pools
to fall into its flow.
The water laps,
advances, withdraws,
pushing slowly, rhythm of pause.
The river sighs, their embrace in the
stream, so much like a dream.
Gentle, gentle,
cool water, soft as finest silk,
ripples over heated skin.
Droplets beg to be licked away
by a lovers tongue
achingly slow.  Oh.
Oh she whispers...murmurs...moans....pleads
his hands follow the waters drift,
easing over satin skin,
flowing, creating a current of desire.
A river's song of ever long
and longing.
Oh, she sighs,
then opens eyes to see his face,
framed by stars.
She breathes his name against his lips
his need is at his fingertips,
drowning in this love they make,
timeless like the current,
an ever flowing heat,
an unquenchable burn,

And the river flows.

He touches her face,
places his fingers against her lips.
Shhhhhhhhhh he whipers.
Listen to the rivers song.
He pulls her closer still.
the rivers hold a lesser grip.
Legs wrapped tight around him,
moans compete with night birds calls.
Enmeshed, in motion, dancing to the river's song.
The moonlight scatters from moistened skins,
and sparkles in their wake.
The river has a thousand fingers
and slides them over everywhere.
Its current ignites their skin,
their fires within - aglow,
in this place that only they know.

Wow....hot and passionate in places while being soothed by the beautiful romance of the setting....wonderful writing you two!

The role of poetry is to utter the un-utterable; to open up
spaces of consciousness and resistance; to language oppressions; to
re-language historie
