Kai Michael Neumann's Contest: Afterglow...6 Apr 25

Sails an evening when breaths lay quietly
         On obscure places fluid as winds,
Where afterglow  of joy becomes a
                      hammock
lulling frayed veins with lemongrass tea.

Sails an evening allowing surrender
     its hypnotic intoxication
The exchange of matter and being--
A silent play of sutra glances
   heaving along red moonlit air,

as two palms ignite a charmed lure, 
     kama  passion pure:
          

For across the distance sails a glow of evening.

A hammock, lemongrass tea, a soft red moon and a warm hand to hold. It don't get much better than that Nette
