Velvet

Under the blanket

of velvet sky

rhythm calls out,

a spiral staircase of delight.

Feel of touch sublime,

beat of our hearts steady rhyme.

Thirst rises for just a sip.

Flirt becomes the desire,

painting love upon your skin.

Resplendent perfection,

weaver of words,

spinner of thoughts,

heart pirouettes.

Lips explore the curve of your neck.

Bathe together in the waters of song.

Flicker of fireflies bright our night.

Symphony of motion,

bodies become a twirling sonnet.

Gasps utter the hearts need,

melody pierces to the bone.

My heart sings the song of my soul.

Come dance with me,

revel in my lead
