whispering softly
almost reverently so
I call you to me
and like a moth to a flame
fly to my woven web
bee to my abundant honey
you are drawn
in an ageless dance
a man in the grip of
his desire's fog
as all sense and matter
falls like change from your packets
your heart swells to reach beyond
these barriers of time and space
and circumstance
to hold my own heart beat
just a little more closely
a tender trapped bird
this flame for you has become
but we must both be gentle yet wise
when petting this wild dream
we each have only just started to feed
for the early moments of this type of a life
are the most telling of all
as birth of anything gives way
to the possibilitiy of new beginnings..............
