Tryst Inside of Eden

Love for us is always a tryst inside of Eden
intimacy shared in the most exotic of places
Whispers born from of our deepest desires
and adoring looks of contentment on sated faces

Your touch brings me from bud to full bloom 
Tenderly, you embrace me beneath moonlit skies
It's there we meld; soul entering soul with each kiss
Each caress has us breathless with moans and sighs

We've made for ourselves a lover's paradise on Earth
The lasting kind, forged and branded with flames
Bound in love and with the rhythmic beats of our hearts
We feast on each other as a poet's sonnet claims

Let not the glow of moonlight, nor of sunlight dimming
pass without words of love spoken in adoring voice
For as dawn and twilight paint beautiful canvases,
we celebrate them together and in each other, rejoice

Just beautiful, Lin. This oozes a barely constrained sensuality but so cleverly side-steps indecency. Annie and I almost shared such a moment today… we were hugging and I whispered in her ear, “I need a net.” She mumbled, “To capture me?” I said, “No, there’s a sparrow in the conservatory.”…….. well, I did say “Almost”. That’s actually more-or-less true! Shame on me!

You have always excelled at rhymes dear Lin... Your poem flows so well with romantic musings.. You have poetically expressed the deeply romantic and sensual connection between two people who see their love as sacred, artistic, and eternal. It captures the blissful intensity of being truly known, desired, and celebrated by another. IF only a love like this existed....

Thank you for clearly understanding my intent in writing of such a love that should be held sacred. I would like to think some have experienced this depth of love... one rare and worthy of existing together in their eden.
