Dark Wine-----Dark Eyes



Your warm hands hold mine,
That with desire both shine and shiver.
Like the moon, looking for a silvered river.
Oh, how long for you I pined.

Sparkling burgundy wine, in tinkling crystal glass.
Hypnotized by your Arcadian, invasive eyes.
This moment, under clear San Francisco night skies.
That time still lives eternally, which nothing can surpass!

Your sweater, soft and dark, green like a sensuous forest.
Stop time in this place~ no, there is far more ahead for us. 
We, in love, so totally, eternally obsessed.
I felt like your goddess in a golden, Greek, love-!bodice!

Of course it's a true life experience. I know you get the depth in my Poetry, Robert. I agree,this is far from a mundane poem. I cannot believe we are both Pisces! How magnificent is that? Happy Birthday, dear Robert. My daughter is March 10th. Mine is March 13th. Marvelous, eh? I really like this poem+. Hope your birthday is filled with gratitude, blessings and the realization of the great poet you are. You light up the atmosphere of Poetry Soup. Thank you, from your fans, here and elsewhere.
