Embracing Eros

To brush candle wicks to a flame On table for a welcome eye My heart of love will bow to you This night with Gods we'll fly The ocean floods breezes for palms Siren's call is heard from the sea Your form fills flickers from candles The wind blows your hair free Your smile captured my heart's yearning Holding it silent, ever soft We'll feast with waves as our music Under the stars aloft Hold hands while strolling the seashore And search horizons for our dreams We'll watch our footsteps wash away And laugh at what it means We'll kiss on the shores of moonlight And feel each wanton need from within Each kiss will leave trailed traces Sacred, rejoicing in We'll lay in the sand to Europa And embrace sighs from Eros flight Passion will sweep away ebb tides Lost in waves of the night 2/11/18/ contest Romantic Poem
