Candlelight Passion

feel the rush of heat he holds your face in his hands ... strange new feelings rise unconditional vows that promise tenderness... last eternally candlelight passion emotion’s soar on hope’s wings... as two become one *Written for Francine’s “Romantic Senryu” contest on January 25, 2012.

No one could say this any better Carolyn. I think later when it is time to write my life story you will be the one that I entrust my bio to. You're one of my dearest friends and that is to say a mouthful, I don't pour out to just anyone. Your mutual friend, Love Moses
