Winter nights
Smoky, aching blue
Piercing my eyes
Open
Work my form
To frenzy...
Dreams
Open eyed
Like a Comma,
Pause-
Hush me
To a moments ease...
Coming to rest
Your head
On my breast
Encircling arms
My ready lips
Soothe your
Aching brow...
Transmuting ease...
And in one
Centered second
Swallowing sparks
That light your mind
In your rest
I rest.

there is great intimacy in this...what it reminds me of though is a mother and child...perhaps the child not feeling well...nice mona!

Very sweet and full of love... the baby's are just like an angle, so fresh from God. I enjoyed reading your pleasure so full of love... pure and blissful.

Lovely poem - like Brian I thought this spoke more of Mother and child love.
Beautifully written.
Tasteful eroticism/melding of selves.
Creates a peaceful mood of accord and harmony lifting a dull day. Nice work, and thanks for your comments at my site.

Nice one, I thought this:
"In your rest
I rest."
was brilliant ...
the tenderness here is just so lovely.
Thank you all, for your kind words!
