Together


Constellations shine down
O’erlooking the meadow
Winking silently, one to another

Tilt my head back and smile
Let us shock them and knock
Them from their orbits as we

Move together.

Breathe deep the scented
Night air fragrant and wet,
The hum of grass wild flowers

An orchestra awaits us here
Singing our pastorale, love song
Melody of crickets, harmony of wind

Play together.

Lie still against my tongue
Tasting honey from wild bees
And I may get stung with sweetness

My hand reaches out and meets
Your warm, soft skin to begin
The dark dance of desire and fire

Love together.
