Glimpsed

begging for a glimpse
of other than your bold eyes
the hidden heat of your smile 
fortune will uncloak
what simple words can not achieve
for one fairer than the sky

uncovered tresses
dance upon the blushing air
kiss my face my cheek, my eyes
drape less bosoms rise
with fragrant breath and whimpers
the gift given lovers lie
