The Things As Yet To Be

Summer sunshine gently fading 
Casting shadows on the lawn
Weeping willow , Branches cascading 
My quiet corner now adorns.
The last rays of sunshine seeming 
To inspire the butterflies to dance
In that moment I am dreaming 
Of true love and romance .

Kisses in the twilight 
Soon the moon will rise 
The romantic air of midnight
Stars shimmering in the skies.
Tender kisses become demanding
As we feel our passion soar
Two lovers understanding 
We can wait no more .

Touches soft and tender
Ignite feelings of desire
Soon we must surrender
To the flames of passions fire.
Kisses that burn with longing 
Hearts beat as if they'll burst
Feelings of warmth and belonging 
Passionate quenching of our thirst.

I know you are out there somewhere
I'm searching desperately for you 
I've spoken of the moments we'll share
and the things that we will do.
My quiet corner of reflection 
Has once more worked for me 
I have felt true loves affection 
and seen the things as yet to be.

For the any poem goes #15 contest
