Notes About The Poem

This is a story of  the subtlety of justiying sins. 1 Corinthians 6:16 [Genesis 2:24] Do you not know that he who unites himself with a prostitute is one with her in body? For it is said, “The two will become one flesh.” But we are citizens of heaven, where the Lord Jesus Christ lives. And we are eagerly waiting for him to return as our Savior. Phillipians 3:20

 

Down Belowers and Up Abovers

My gosh you are the most beautiful women I have ever seen. 
Your alabaster skin and the warmth of your heart within 
     illuminate your face I see when I close my eyes, 
     and I can take her beauty with me wherever I ride. 
My desire, this desire is strong within, 
I want your love it's an addiction
And I caught you staring at me once from a distance, 
This had my thoughts racing at your beauty’s insistence. 
If I were an artist, you are the canvas on which we lay, 
If I were a poet your beauty would be at play, 
    to console and cajole (as you stand below the mistletoe) 
    you into a lovers embrace, 
In the writhing and the sighing of our lovers’ interchange 
    let us not forget our place 
    we must honor God by covenanting as one 
    so, let’s be gracious and spacious
    to one another as we step through the portal as up-abovers.
I can’t express this enough and there is more to be said, 
I am captured by your beauty to the point of each distress, 
    so you as a model as this artist looks on,
I draw in all the curves from hill to glen  
And think of all the kisses to your supple lips 
    and the flowers petals as they open
