Gentle night

i inhale your tender sighs
warming my soft breasts

i savor the slow beat
flickering candle lights

i listen to silky cadence
enveloped in your ardent arms




our hands grasp firmly
sea of our passion

cherishing breadth and
fullness of precious time

gentle is the night
when we celebrate us




Shared with The Gooseberry Garden:   Poetry Picnic 14:  What I am thankful for in my life.   I am thankful for the quiet moments with my family.

  13. Lovely! Reminds me of that song...Tonight I celebrate my love for you. Tonight...there will be no distance between us...It's an 80's ballad. Can't remember the singers now.

    Very nicely penned, Heaven.
