We stood on the rocky cliff of hope
And I dove right into your eyes
And I stroked the flame of your silken hair as
Beautiful as sunsetting skies.
We stood on the precipice of passion's desire
And I dove right into your skin
And sank like a stone to your warmest deep
Praying never to surface again.
We stood on the lip of wonder's abyss
And I slipped like a fool into your gaze
And lost like a wonderstruck, thunderstruck boy
Was I in your sweet, hazel maze.
We stood on the bank of lover's hearts
And I waded to my hips in you
And felt the gentle caress of your hands
Rushing by me in bottomless blue.
We stood on the rocky cliff of hope
Admiring God's miraculous view
And I stroked the flame of your burning hair
As I silently fell into you
I think this is a beautiful poem!
beautiful! the total abandonment of falling headlong into love! good poem. eric
