Glow

Sit by the fire my love, 
and let its flare 
caress you softly, 
soft as the 
suggestion of my touch 

fluttering gently on your 
skin yet slowly 
fading, as frail embers 
quit their glow 
and sputter cold. 

My passion shall o'ercome 
flame's waning appetite 
and keep you warm, 
'til stars rescind 
their luster to the dawn.
