First Night

He gazed at his lover with awe,
A body without any flaw.
She was a newborn fawn
With grace now adorned,
Their bodies were deeply enthralled.  
 
For years I had watched her grow sure,
Her skills and her confidence pure.
The boy by her side,
Saw the pride in my eyes,
For my daughter, whose heart was unstirred.
 
In silence, they lay close together,
Clinging so that no mother could sever.
In the hallway, I stood,
Heard the creaking of wood,
Their whispers as soft as a feather.
 
Beneath them, a mattress of old,
Where her life's first chapters were told.  
With each tender moan,
Came a love newly shown,
Two children their stories unfold.  
 
The walls bore witness to all,
With trophies and her childhood dolls,
She spread her legs wide
Leaving nothing to hide  
From innocent grace they would fall.
