Desert Flight

Azure sky
Desert
Dry mountains

Creek bed
Hint of green vegetation
Promise of cool water
In canyon below

Desiccating wind
Blowing
Steady
Strong
(Kite flying weather)

Eyes closed
Lips touch tentatively
Tongues dancing
Faintly sweet
Taste of prickly pear

Embraced
Supported in the breeze

Fingers and hands
Exploring
Inflaming

Scent intoxicating
Sensual tension
Desire

Sensation
Of
Flight

Freed from gravity
Soaring together.
