Cecilia Macfarlane Poet Rhyme

An Offering

I offer you a glance
And our eyes instantly lock.
An unexpected shiver runs through me
And time stands still on the clock.
 
I offer you my hand
And you take it warmly into yours.
No words have to be spoken
Yet we have opened so many doors.
 
I offer you a dance
And our bodies meld together.
We are both in awe and astonished,
Both wanting this to last forever.

I offer you a kiss
Which makes us quiver in delight.
The passion and the pleasure
Intensifies through the night.

I offer you my heart
and I trust that you won't break.
To fall in glorious love
is a risk we yearn to take.
