On Alabaster Wings

I dream of taking flight with you, around Saturn's rings
If only we could soar above the clouds on alabaster wings
Over mountains we'd fly until we reach the brightest star
I'd never tire of starlight dreams if that's where you are

"Elusive" is a word that never describes what we share
I know when I close my eyes, I'll find love waiting there
In your arms I feel a soft blush, warming my complexion
Our kisses grow passionate, igniting the flame of affection

An elliptical embrace, amidst the seducing central sun
Within stellar nurseries, where our love has been spun
Just like binary stars, exchanging solar sensual flares
Our love strengthens as we climb the seraphic stairs

As we sail celestial seas, I have your heart by my side
On alabaster wings, what an enchanting rhythmical ride
The universe our playground as we frolic through with ease
Your touch, a Supernova bliss breathing in a botanical breeze

We cling in love's embrace, once more circling 'round the moon
fearing the rising light of dawn will separate us much too soon
But each night I'll be with you when I close my eyes and dream
as we take flight amid the stars when moonlight is all agleam

My friend, I just left this comment on Jan's post: Absolutely and incredibly beautiful. I loved this poem and how it flows so melodically and softly, which I know is hard to accomplish when collaborating. Both of you did such a wonderful job with this, probably the best I have read for this contest. Nicely done both poets. You and Jan did an amazing job with this.
