Celestial Sphere

Celestial sphere, a moon of coral hue
an empress of my universe, it lies 
so cloistered deep between the curtains, veiled...
serene and quiet till it's brought to life

when sought and fondly wooed, she starts to blush
and moves sedately out of hiding place
caressed and gently kissed, she comes to life
and pulses strongly, moon-like drawing tides

eclipsed is everything except her wish
to stir the tempest of awakening love
and when my ravished soul is on the brink
she brings release and lets the storm abate

you know her well; you know her every mood
and how she will succumb to loving play
this earthly sister of bewitching moon
abides her time until she's called to bloom
