The Lovers

They kissed
with such passion
that the air around them
seemed to shimmer and glow
and no one passing by
could deny this...
Never had there been such a scene
On a park bench.

Yet she... watched them
intensely as if her life
depended on it
As if an essay question
would be written on the curve
of this womans' lips and how they slightly
dipped when he gave her his tongue.
She watched... with as much passion
in her eyes as they were displaying
with there bodies.

She could see...that they were alone
admist a world of passersby clinging
to one another in the heat of an
afternoon sun ...she wanted
to be wanted like that...her
body contracting with sweet shivers
Of past Lovers memories bursting
to the forefront of her mind
Like heat seeking bombs
Exploding as she watched him
pinch her nipple through her clothes
Exploding as the woman responded
with a muffled cry of pleaure...
Exploding as she saw his hand travel
under the womans short dress
to discover her molten mysteries
As others turned away in disgust..
She watched ....
she watched these two
lovers ignite and burst into flames
flames that licked her inner fires awake
and  reminded her of a time
Before her graying hair..and dimming eyes
Of a time when she was desireable
with heavy breast ....and rounded hips
that no man could resist...
Now the lovers stood ...with skin flushed
Only halfway aware of the world around them
as they stumbled clumsily over each others feet
to go complete there activites behind closed doors

She watched them..walk away
until she couldnt see them anymore.

With a sigh she felt the pulse
of her own heat causing her nipples
to throb under the light house coat she wore
As she imagined what
the young lovers must be doing now

walking back along the shaded trees
and into her own home she closed the door
breathless over her vivid afternoon
spent in a voyeuristic menage a trois
her eyes traveled to her bedroom drawer
Now she knew what she would be doing
while her clothes were drying...
After all, she was still a woman
with needs
of
her
own
