Such a beautiful dreamer
soft attractions
in pages of Tom Jones
Lady Chatterley's satisfaction
taken to places of impropriety
never recognizing a boundary.
Caution gives way to need
where hearts break and bleed.

In dreams buds open to bloom
slowly, so their fragrance wafts
indelibly breathed in and held
enjoyed to fullest height
as a body becomes compelled.

In dreams of love
the dance is always a waltz
matching steps-eyes in askance
the answer, discretely given,
a nod, a wink,  a sly smile
the heart is driven 
and will not be repressed
Love must acquiesce.
