In the Shade of Love

~ Crystallized moon beams, fractured light of endless desires shimmer on you as our eyes meet beneath a canopy of gemstone brilliance Pearl buttons glisten as fingers touch and your smile grants permission, leaving me breathless Serenity of the night serenades our hearts in silent yearnings Your skin, sweet of perfumed nectar scents the evening in aromatic siftings A sultry sigh floats wispily to the heavens as we lay entwined on feathery grass exploring each other amidst whispering winds City lights twinkle, reflections on the bay, unaware of our love, our moment Leaves trickle to earth like tiny wings as I gaze upon your silhouette, mysterious against this velvet sky Still beauty falls like summer rain drenching my sight with you A full moon stares down smiling, happily enchanted by our movements The distant horizon mirrors us, lingering upward at your charm, feeling every pulsation of affection Blissfully seeking deeper meaning as you gaze down in hypnotic peering Harmonic exhales sing in a sensual duet, echoing through tree lined vistas Increasing in tempo, you fall to my lips dampened by melodic rapture Fevered vibrations rhythmically sway, while constellations dance, effervescent patterns on an ebony abyss A shooting star trails your murmured gasp, comets collide within, intensely exploding, illuminating our endless dreams Simultaneous sensations glisten, ecstasy quivers in stardust sprinkling on our hearts as the evening blushes in the shade of love ~
