lust
ADi May 2021
So thin is the blue light
that shines on your warm skin,
yet so thick is the air
I breathe between our lips.
As our eyes kiss
I see flames dance,
scarlet fire
as we undress.

quatrain 1
ADi Dec 2019
Soft as light that slips through windows shaded
alabaster body tangled up in
sea of wrinkled cotton warm and faded.
Still and silent, I dare not awaken

sonnet 1
ADi Dec 2019
I'm wading in the waning evening light
awaiting to be washed ashore in song
together dancing in the cusp of night -
oh, won't you waltz with me forever long?
From panoramic dusk to moonlight's yawn
meandering along your southern shore
our dance will persevere into the dawn -
these twilight steps I've always known before.
With guiding hands you set a lively pace,
engulfing journeyed soles in rhythmic peace
and feeding weary soul with easy grace -
like footsteps disappearing in the sea.
In time to singing waves does my heart beat
as every sun and moon shall rise, repeat.

— The End —
