Delicate
Handle with care
A crystal figurine
A fragile heart, to be held
lightly

Fragrance of a hot night
silken trace across white satin
still warm

Taste
savoring the moments of a kiss
of many kisses
places

Nails lightly wandering
as eyes glisten with anticipated
moments of passion
of glowing embers
fanned lightly
by desire

Until...
Dawn comes
as a dream lingers
in the pool of
melted wax

Candles flicker
and sleep returns
to fan the coals
of my fire....
