Olive Eloisa Guillermo - Fraser Poet Tanka

Trembles and Thrills

TREMBLES and THRILLS


Was it love that spelled
when I caught a glimpse of him
on a starless night?
Flame of passion rise
Frozen hearts thawed, now aflame

When loving captures
Hugging limbs of two entwined
They, naked or clothed
Their entranced display absorbed
Bare or askew, loves spoken

Of sweet spring night dream,
a bed of blooms reach their peak,
virginal petals
under a bank of dawn clouds
tickled, blushes rosy reds...

Falling into wake,
I stirred to feel summer breaths
stroking my cold cheeks.
I ask myself, was the dream
I have, instantly came true?

Minutes passed, we stood
warm drops from sudden showers
rolled upon our curves
as heat surfaces from us;
our bodies dancing again...

Breaking morning rules
we lie spooned for two more hours
heartbeats sang refrains.
Our song broken by soft rain,
we dressed to begin our day.
