Upon a Bed of Petals

Beneath the cherry tree, a blossom quilt laid out Inviting, calling, each petal a beckoning finger Sun sprinkles through the leaves springs here, hear the shout Hand in hand two lovers stand and linger. Face to face fingers entwined, lips just start kissing Breaths held, hearts beating, now in unison Arms around, holding close not a heart beat missing As down to their knees they fall as one. The quilt of petals becomes their fantasy Entwined as one in perfumed heaven Wrapped in love their passions free Hopes rising like warming leaven Sharing breaths one body and one mind Fluttering petals float on the spring breeze A love story like this you will not find Passions unlocked as with golden keys. One heart, one body, one mind Together on a blanket of petals True lovers find themselves entwined As the perfumed petals on pale skins settle © 11/04/2013
