Intrusions of Nature

INTRUSIONS OF NATURE In a cascade of light, like wax that melts, It strayed, mischievous and free of bounds, Across her smiling lips, mine eyes did dwell, Then solace found upon her bosom's mounds. I pressed kisses on her ankles fair, And in response, her laughter did abound, Melodious, sweet, with notes that filled the air, Like cut glass sparkling, a joyous sound. Her dainty feet sought refuge in her gown, As if to say, "No further, I implore." Yet she relented, allowing love to crown, Her laughter bearing no reproach, no more. Her tender eyes danced 'neath my gentle touch, A caress, delicate, to move her soul, She cast her head back, mock despair as such, "Truly, Monsieur," she playfully extolled. And then, with kiss upon her gentle breast, I met her challenge, laughter's flame renewed, That laughter, a sign of consent at best, She stood, undressed, resolute and shrewd. Outside, brazen trees leaned 'gainst the glass, Their leaves intruding, curious, so near, Snooping upon our intimate repast, Too close, invading our privacy, I fear. :: 05.13.2023 ::
