Blessed Harvest

as autumn's beauty explodes
in comforting hues of amber
summer petals become bulbous heads
in anticipation of fall's sensual splendor.

an aura of warmth and excitement
kisses our cheeks with a rosy glow,
as we softly cocoon ourselves
in a hearth of tender knowing.

evenings are lustful delicacies
as mornings burst with pleasure,
it is a time of blessed harvest
to nourish and replenish our souls.

wrapped in each other's care
we celebrate and honour
with excitement and passion
the feast of autumn's beauty.

we joyously give in completely
to the magic of autumn's scent
as fiery embers dance with us
to wonderrous heights of desire.

autumn's gorgeous palette
envelops our lingering moments
as we savour, breathlessly,
the rhapsody of souls becoming one.
