Silent Glances

Jazzy nights filled with romance
                      and glassy dreams ! 
Buildings lit beneath a sleepy sky
             of smudge coal gray 

His hand gently placed in mine, 
a breath away from me 
he sits, 
           sailor of my fantasies, ardor of my beating heart...  

A sailboat retires for the night 
                      on the dock over quiet waters 
inside the cafe, music plays softly
                                    like sensual summer winds
He gifts me a smile, 
                                       and stars appear, 
                                sending light into mine !  

Velvet time,            layered moments
                 filled with enfolding bliss
 
                        We share one kiss ! 
   
Truth be told, 
he is the soulmate I longed for all my life 
I am lost in love's hammock, 
                        rocked by his slow candor,
I feel loved,  clothed in fleece...  

Jazzy nights filled with perfume
                               and a budding slow romance 
The saxophone plays on ....  
we speaking softly  to each other,  
                               through silent glances.
