A Sleeping Silhouette

Earliest of the morning light
peers its silly little smiles
Peeking through shades and sills

Swathing ambience surrounds
Sketching out a silhouette
Sleeping contours satin covered still

Gentle touches, my fingertips paint as brushes
Traces, the wildflower’s presence
Lying silent among the daffodils

Fine captured lines of radiance
Savor the ages of overflowing wines
Upon her sculptured rills

Each dip of arc in moments defined
Lightly engraven and etched
Upon the passing of time… fulfilled

Michael G. Smith/ Soft senuality

Then, her warmth
And that of the sunlight
Unite to mingle with her essence spilled

A sensual fragrance, among the treliss shadowed room
Euphoric of her swirling incense
My soul once empty, now begins to fill

She feels my leers
And begins to stir
Then, ebony curls arouse surreal

Also, those sleepy eyes melting chocolates of blinks and stares
Where the sun shines, once again
As amber sparkling smiles reveal

Our special love, a union eternal
As she draws me close for embrace
And offers her now exhilirating appeal
