Across The Moor of Waning Moon |

My love.. As each flower blooms, my love of thee grows. As each dawn arrives, my eyes see thy beauty beside me. Breezes off the moor carry to me thy pleasurable fragrance. Clouds above bring to mine eyes your flowing hair, your face. The sun of day glistens from your eyes as the gold of sunset matches the flow and color of your hair.. Rains fall as do my tears. Tears that flow ever endlessly till thy heart touches mine. Tears of brine that sprinkle the earth ‘neath my feet. Tears that streak a tired and weary face. Tears of love. Each step brings thee closer to mine arms. Each beat of my heart a mere echo of thine own. Blood of my veins course a raging stream of desire. My hunger can only be quelled by thy tenderness, thy touch. By thy whispered word of now, of more.. Lie in wait my love, my lady, one most fair. For I ride the night to be with thee. My steed spurred on by yet his own wants. Each of us battle weary, worn... Only a vision of thee keeps mine energies flowing, keeps desires of thee ever strong. Moon of my heart sets slow Moon of my night rides well Eve of my wait is nigh Of this love, thee I tell. |

Magnus darling boy each time I read the magic of your words I wait, just a pause, a mere heartbeat, to see if the magic will still work and it does darling boy it does. The veil of delight that you cast over my soul settles over me and again I’m swathed in the silk of your words. They entwine themselves around my soul, decorating, clearing the soul’s vision and revealing the beauty once more. Thank you darling boy this is as ever utterly utterly perfect I love it utterly Love and warm stuff As always Mushy Breathe through the heat of our desire |

Excellent poem Magnus, I especially like the way you use your words to create a kind of old style feeling along with your wit and ingenuity. Staring into the sun just makes you blind to what beauty actually exists in the sky. |
