Take the Ribbon From My Hair

With the dawning of the day Like a fertile vine which creeps amidst the purple hues of Tuscan fields I yield my fruit Before first autumn rain these eyes in wait for you Starved like a harvest moon you come to me Silk honey of dusk An opalescent shadow descending in the cradle of my arms Feeding nectar from my lips Ravishing my soul Amusing my solitude with blazing fire Upon scarlet foliage Our kiss 'Neath cashmere sheets your breath within me Dolce Vino Those fingers on my neck's nape Viola in concerto In sleep ,once again in dreams where eyelids close to the bliss of twilight dew I see you.
Dedicated to the man in my life !
