SnareKnitter

The red fingered dawn

brings the purr of new troth.

Scattered thoughts are gone,

halt this wander...this rove.



Our notes call into

the still, thousand-eared night

as fires begin to

bring passion to its height.



Flames under my skin,

breathe warm and humid rasp.

My body melts within

your bold and lusty grasp.



Quench this longing so deep

with tears and kisses like rain.

Come hold me while I weep

for love, the snare-knitter, again.


Author's Notes/Comments: 

This one was inspired by the work of Sappho.
