The Ambiance of Amber Light - a Collaboration With Frederic Parker

I watch the rising sun of morning glow behind you inviting my eyes to pause in soft amber light which frames your beauty warming my heart with a smile bursting the seed pods of passion allowing them to float endlessly... through my soul pouring desire into the eyes of love until they overflow and drip like dew from leaves glistening in the sun spiraling towards Earth leaving a wondrous glint in the eyes could that this moment never end nor escape into the unknown Bathed is my essence in sweet dew of dawn and wondrous is the glint that luster your eyes as I radiate morning-glory grandeur within your golden gaze of ardor whose fervent seeds sow saffron dreams wishing to possess and be possessed I reach for you surrendering in softest amber light luscious in the bloom of morn captured in the nectar of each breath taken in the heated heights of desire’s depths this moment an amaranth thrilling this twinkling of time never to fade like a distant star Frederic Parker and Susan Ashley (a collaboration) June 2, 2019 ~ Poem Of The Day ~ June 3, 2019 (celebrated on Frederic Parker's page) Special note: it is indeed an honor to share in the wonderful recognition of Poem Of The Day with my inspiring and gifted collaborator, Frederic Parker.
