Love's Caress

Warm the hand to caress the face of love To linger softly, pause upon the skin Smiles offer a gentle wish to dream of As we find the primordial again From the eyes of reverence and silence We have tethered ourselves without a word In a timeless world of shared compliance Only our rhythmic heartbeats can be heard This feathered touch with its smooth trailing trace This realm caressed in solemn solitude Will measure the fervor of our embrace With tender moments from love's interlude To brush the face of my love, to express In love's sanctuary, lovers confess 3/6/21
