Loving Nights

When the day grown weary falls asleep
      when nights dark reign has finally begun
the moments of the time we chance to keep
      are measured by two hearts that beat as one.
In each others arms we drift and sway
      floating in a rivers warm caress
our passion grows as troubles fall away
      and we're consumed by loving tenderness.
It is then to Heaven that we fly
      our minds are freed as bodies turn to fire
sinking deep within my love I hear you cry
      as I am filled, complete by your desire.

      This is the only place I long to be
      where I know sweet joy within your love for me

Smile~"Hello Beautiful & Gifted & Lovely Robin!!!"~I hope that Your day was filled splendors today dear lady~ You know, I just switched over to your write here, after reading Your last comment upon my own; and, as I was looking at Your name, I realized, how sincerely much "Your Heart & Soul" has come to mean unto myself, within such a very short while!!!~ While looking upon Your name, it was almost as if, I could feel You within my own soul....{Cont}
