One Early Morning Summer's Day

We wander gently and silently but with mounting anticipation
through the weather beaten gate into the long grassed meadow
the chill and dampness of the dewy grass on our bare feet
overcome by the warmth of the rising sun matching our desires

Hand in hand we walk, our fingers tenderly stroking each other's palm
then with reckless abandon we rush headlong joyously to our special spot
buttons popping, zips zipping, clothes flying furiously up in the air
we sink excitedly onto the cool damp meadow floor, the sun is smiling

The birds and bees hover and float above us 
they gaze down in deep knowledgeable fascination
they understand, they admire, they appreciate, they approve
they have seen it all before, they know it's what god intended

We are finally at peace and love, at one with nature
the universe is forgotten, as we relax with pleasure all on our own
satisfied and complete as we lie fully exposed to the world
but oh so snugly happily hidden from view

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
