In Soft Gentle Breezes

In soft gentle breezes he felt her touch so light
  her fair cheeks' alabaster glow on a moonlit night
The magic of her sweet breath in deep waters' allure
  her shy coquetry in rolling green meadows demure

She was with him in storms, in the calm just before
  her voice, a whippoorwill's wings on which to soar
And in single dewdrops that fell from the sky
  he tasted her moist ruby lips in whispered goodbyes...

Love this line so much: " her voice, a whippoorwill's wings on which to soar". The voice that is pleasing makes the poem even more beautiful!
