Unhurried

The night passed alone,
but morning greeted the day
with your return to me.

Upon me you climb
to wake me into delight
unhurried...tenderly.

Time spent ticks slow as 
gently as your touch arouses 
desire for your loving embrace.

Just cannot understand why this (and more of your excellent work...but this in particular) has not been commented upon. Deserves some response surely? Even if a negative one! This is not smut, people -- it is art! Marvellous piece of original and deliciously lush and delightfully sensuous work! 10 out of 10 for this one, Sharon. My very best regards! :) john
