Francine Roberts Poet Senryu

Flame Turns To Embers

soft skin like honey

    a gentle caress like wind

        ...and so it begins


soft lips meet soft lips

    kisses enflame the passion

        ... passion engulfs us


two hearts beat as one

    with arms and legs entangled

       ... flame turns to embers
