Nature's Rendezvous

Your eyes are gentle as the sun
Who sweeps her lids at daybreak come
Upon terrain, her earthly son
And cradles him from shadowed numb.

Your hands are tender as the moon
Who titillates beyond night’s doom
For velvet is his dust cocoon
That raptures all with sweet consume.

Your smiles are ticklish as a star
Whose feathers brush celestial tar
She yields resistless mirth afar
So fire and bleak discover par.

Your kiss is stirring as the sea
When tempest wails and waves banshee
Yet when she ends her churning spree
Her voice is soaked with calming glee.

Your soul is whole as universe
Who seeks his beauty to disperse
And spatters truth without rehearse
His loving vestige sparkling thyrse.
