Misty Autumn Evening

misty autumn evening our lips collide  under blushing stars and rustling leaves on sassafras trees my skin you touch cooing dove sounds exit my lips caramel eyes on fire my hand glides on silk and warm cotton perfume inhaled  fingers sweet  that ole south huckleberry wind comes cool off the river wind plays tag with running brown leaves inside the castle walls shadows tango with sunlight vibrations race throughout my body shuddering  like a leaf a meteor shower  of onyx and cafe noir  the scent of clary sage  and alabaster      is the perfume I wear feeding frenzy breath sounds  skin muscle bone and sinew      liquid caramel brown eyes glistening rosy pink lips eyes dilate as the levee breaks
