( a collaboration )

Poet’s note: Frederic, dear friend, dear poet, it was an honor to receive your gracious invitation to share in the creation of this moonlit realm of romance. The amorous inspiration of your exquisite verse lit the enchanted path for my pen to follow. Thank you, Frederic, for yet another artistic experience where dreamy pens explore the essence of human love as something mystical, meaningful and transcendent.


 

My love, let us live this paradisal evening dressed in wispy clouds of red and tailored in strips of orange embellishing the horizon where shades and shadows embrace your face as the last glimmer of daylight falls leaving a raptured sky of coral pink and red enhancing your beauty in the twilight's glow as your hair dances like tranquil threads in the breeze of the day's end where the throes of velvet gleam shine through a veil of parting clouds your lips part like fragrant petals forming words they drift to my ears on breathless sighs of romance the world disappears, I see only you revealed in amorous scenes of romantic portraits hanging on the wall of my heart your eyes welcome me into their mysterious world of ardent fantasies and dreams filled with amorous promises of aphrodisiacal kisses and heartfelt need where nothing exists but the tenderness that binds us to the offerings we toss in the flame stoked by enchantment and primordial urge when our hearts become naked and unafraid of what lies before us when we look into the eyes of ardor drawing us closer to a timeless intimate celestial wish for the sun has set and the night has opened its stars to us beneath buttercream streams of Venus light soft our breath caressing the air we share fingertips mingle skin-sensations so sacred the feel of your touch the only satisfaction I’ll know in a moon garden of gardenia glamour spicy scents hug the dark like a temptress feminine and masculine sweet and wild the musk so like us woo of wind spirit flutters the pulse of roots and stems and tendrils reaching grasping unmasking everlasting invisible but for dances of lilacs and moonflowers and flirty traipses of tresses in slight stirrings frisky-felt on fair-freckled skin bare but for the moonglow we wear quiver of white lilacs on branches shiver of green leaves blended in shadows feel naught what we already feel and savor the lilac leaf the shape of our intimacy a supple vein of love joining two halves as each half as a whole shares as one heart the same stars the same moon the same lilac spray moonflowers in bloom unveil vanilla perfume oh sweet its release lured by a flurry of murmurs how sweet your breath gliding over every leaf over every moonvine petal how sweet your sighs gliding over me my name in the vibe of your sighs beguile my ears your hands in my hair loose curls looping your fingers like trellis-vines your lips our kiss within a whisper’s edge we rouse in dance like luna moths earthly and ethereal like heat waves escaping an oasis we rise ripples growing in waves sweep our mortal veins rising to break the ache of chains and singe the stars our passion astral and feral a meteor a lightning bolt tonight we steal the scene from the buxom moon in her silver stole our afterglow steals the luster from nightglow aerial and physical so like us
