Afterglow

In the afterglow
Her head upon my shoulder
Hearts beating as one

There is such passion expressed here in so few words. This is a beautiful poem, Mark!

Thank you. Passion at any age is supposedly a characteristic of us Libras (not that I pay any serious attention to astro.).

Thank you. I literally made that up just after fooling around with my wife. You were about the first person to compliment one of my pieces when I first signed on. Thanks for the support.

Glad you liked it. There's nothing quite like those few euphoric moments after intimacy, holding close someone you love. Thanks for commenting.
