The First Time
THE FIRST TIME
his spoken words that special night so long ago
‘I want you and need you in my life—never fail
to remember this moment as an eternal display
of how I find absolution in your body and soul’
bodies embraced warmth on that cold night
swiftly elevating to burning passion and desire
moonlight spilled through the frosting window
as he entered her gently with tears in his eyes
their rhythm held a natural exquisite beauty a
parallel ebb and flow of tides as waves swelled
drawing her yielding body firmly against his taut
in unison they touched star crescendos pinnacles
for both of them - the first time- an eternal love
cemented in their bodies and souls everlastingly
cruel life paths wrenched soul mates unity apart
but treasured memories remain bonding hearts
