Notes About The Poem

Image may contain: candles and fire

Melting Moments

Melting Moments.
.
As the retiring day adorns it’s shroud
And the later hours slow gradually down
I lay here in alone in darkened room
A scented glowing candle shed’s ambient light
Inducing a calm subdued mood
As the perfume candle wafts as a breeze
In this peaceful melting interlude
.
Soft music caresses my soul
Stirring subtle emotions
Liberating my spirit from burden
As I close my eyes and drift away
On soothing calm warm waters
My being safely harboured
In a far off distant bay
.
Nothing I want or do need
Just calm and serenity lapping over me
And the depths of breath I breathe
Utter contentment drowning in bliss
My naked body kissed
By a thousand
Invisible lips
And gentle feathered strokes 
Of teasing light fingertips.
