Sounds of the night
Loud sounds the night
breathing waves of cicada
mixing in cricket din
She sends me flowers
with her letter asking me
if I am better
perfume wafts
from the enveloped care
crimped with compassion
love succulent sacrament
held in manila packaging
this night screams for her reach
as miles carry closeness
breath upon wings
bats flit like eyelids
disguising themselves
as carrier pigeons
racing night skies
thumping our pulse
call of wolves
echoing thoughts
reach miles
where hands hold
keeping safe
sacrosanct chambers
breathing waves of cicada
mixing in cricket din
She sends me flowers
with her letter asking me
if I am better
perfume wafts
from the enveloped care
crimped with compassion
love succulent sacrament
held in manila packaging
this night screams for her reach
as miles carry closeness
breath upon wings
bats flit like eyelids
disguising themselves
as carrier pigeons
racing night skies
thumping our pulse
call of wolves
echoing thoughts
reach miles
where hands hold
keeping safe
sacrosanct chambers

Like the arch of life, this write provides vibrant descriptions that leave a reader wondering what is the next chapter. The link to nature reminds me a bit of John Lennon's description of his mom in "Julia', although here it is quite evident more of a romantic relationship is suggested.

Nice job, Soulman, love the escorting of romance through the night by our friends in nature. Your words, as always, blend so beautifully.
