SUBTLE PLUMAGE

Folder: 
JOURNAL#24

                                





bare breasted in bathed moonlight

with trusting palms up

open to the stars

your heart in my merry eyes

casting sweet reflective light

in a pool of shadow less words

the lips of the wind

caress the  luminous glow of my

creamy skin

translucent nearly so much in

thought

as these ribbons that bind our

hungry hearts to each other from

within

softly I chant your so beloved name

again and yet again

in such faultless mantra

of this love's beautiful blend

love with so much depth needs no

spectacular audience to flourish

one man and one woman

simple enough ingredients

to stir up a strengthen able bond

as the draw of each's more true spirit

holds the highest precedence

agree you not?

this veritable win

for centuries

such perfect plateau

man has labored for and sought

cashing in though far too often on the

physical attributes

and forgetting what souls from the

very beginning of creation were taught

love is not love

if to achieve its goal

certain preset conditions must apply

redirect one's energy force away from

the self for once

and a fiercer stronger better wiser love

will grow and multiply..........
