Mornings Dawning
First morning light, but my delight comes not from naturescreeping
The hint of form, as glow of dawn reveals you gently sleeping
So still and calm, the cold night?s balm has eased a long
days tension Soon this new day will make away begun with best intention
I lie awake, each breath I take awakens sleep dulled hearing
First distant sounds in air on ground and you beside me softly
breathing To taste warm sweet perfume that lingers in our room opens
up a wealth of memories I watch your face, feel no disgrace in how I feel in how this
sight must please
Mind and body awake as one
Anticipates sweet joys so quickly done
The airs crisp chill upon our covers thin
Draws bodies close together skin to skin
Warmth we share like glowing coals of fire
Add fuel grow hot soft breeze fans hard desire
You wake somewhere ?tween dream and light of day
Unfolding plots meet muscle?s knots, lines from a play
Or songs we steal 'cause how we feel are writ within
We watch we hear we feel, a melody begins
Both growing old we rise from cold but we as twain must meet
Hands move to write new lyric, racing pulse soon sounds
the beat
Tempo begins slow tango rapid waltz pressed bodies are
entwined We watch we hear we feel such a power of the mind
Soon face to face we weave the senses dance
In a moment of reality ask do we take the chance
Deeper urges, passions? surges overtake the moment
To please and squeeze to tease then ease, elation becomescontent
Alarm goes off yet wakens not to distress
Awake? Perhaps a changed reality, we rise and dress
And go about the things we know we must from day to day
Were this a dream could it so surely know us both smilingall the way
I watch you part but in my heart and throat a lump where oncea whole
Perhaps this is what they meant by chicken soup that?s forthe soul
