Poem: "Beauty's Whisper"

"Beauty's Whisper"

Waking up next to you
the morning sun hits my face
with its welcoming warmth
the clock reads 9 a.m.

The night has faded
in its exquisite glory
with its secret promises
and perfect indiscretion

You gaze at me so sweet
it makes my heart soar
feels like heaven beside you
my dear beloved

Kiss me once
with that aching mouth
those perfect lips
make this moment
linger just awhile longer

When our bodies meet
at the sensual intersection
of affection and longing
I'm on fire
as you lean closer
into me
deeper we go down

In the morning you lay in bed
your head on my bare chest
I feel the joy in you breath
I feel you up against me
whispering gently in my ear

"I love you"

Then something within me
dies and is reborn in an instant
the world is wide and wonderful
once more

On the windowsill, a dove waits
shimmering in the afterglow
of beauty's return.
