Warmth
Celestial glow;
illuminating warmth.
Cover me with your light.
Bathe my skin
with your radiance
and my soul
with your fire.
Awake in me
dormant desires
and slumbering senses.
Reignite my will
and renew my strength.
Energy-giving heat,
heal my heart
and expand my mind.
As I wait,
let your honeyed beams
permeate my very being.
Soften any rough edges
and purify me.
Cover me;
bring me into you
that warmth and light
might exude from me.

Cold hard forever of night
Drifting alone without a sight
Concealing a stone made of pure light
Falling from heaven in your eyes tonight

This is beautiful, Waffle. There’s such an underpinning of reverence for both the sunlight and yourself that really grounds and connects the whole poem. Really love this one!

Dear E,
Reads like Browning or Dickinson. I really love the closing lines that tie it all together. Really lovely write. H🌷

Thank you. I haven't read much of either, actually! This was my hardest write yet, and took a very long time.

First verse especially could be read as hintingly erotic with its suggestion of a lover's warmth.

Interesting! Have never ventured into erotic writing, but it might be an interesting challenge.

If it's something you don't do too much of and want to take that plunge (not wanting to sound graphic here), think of erotic writing like skinny-dipping.
