Slow and steady

I long to kiss her as a calm summer shower;

The long-sought caress of clouds,
Gladly shading late June
Afternoons;

I long to hold her in arms of unwavering adoration;

Lay her slowly down on
Perfumed lilies and pungent petrichor;



I long to let my lips dance,

Delicate
Upon her bare skin,

Daring on and further in,

Discovering
Suddenly
That sheer delight
Spreading steadily in her smile,

And laughter from her strawberry lips,
As pleasure floods between her hips,

And she trembles,
Tingling in long-expected ecstasy,
And she wraps me in her own steady embrace
And binds me with her loving gaze.
