Raindrops falling as we walk
Pitter pat, on the umbrella we share
Fingers intertwined,
The crisp air flows over our skin
As we walk in lock-step.

We splash in the puddles
Left behind from the dips
The leaves sticking to our boots
As we search for a soft dry place

To spread our coats
Under the boughs of a pine
Feeling the crunch of the needles
As I lay you down

Our lips meet
Cool from the weather
Warm tongues chase away the cold
As a fire is lit

It burns. Slow, and hot.
Out here, it melts everything away
Skin exposed, it knows no chill
As mouth and hands keep warm

Wet and salt we crave
The fire burning hotter
Our legs woven together
As the warmth fill us both

We near the spark
Touching the flame
Feeling its sting
Tasting its warmth on our lips

Fire consumes us
Burning within the depths
Ablaze with passion
No longer contained

Wildfire dances within us
Billows blow
Flames fanned
flashpoint

Dwindling, we breathe
Smelling the singe, fall together
Skin steaming
Aching from the burn

Pitter pat, the leaves remind us
The flames die down
Arms like coils release
To adorn the robes we wore

Fingers entangle again
Lips warm, bodies embrace
Water drops cool on our heads
Eyes sparkling at one another

Onto the trail
Our alter fire diminished
We slowly walk away
A spark burning within her

I dream about you
When I'm completely awake
I see you every time I close my eyes
And every time I open them
You're burned into my retina
Like I've been staring at the sun

Split from the same atom,
Our souls are bound to one another.
Magnetically pulled together as if they have gravity.
Orbiting this world alone and on different paths,
We were joined in a whirlwind of electricity.
Charged with passion and chemical attraction
Our hearts melted into one.
Forever, I shall be fused to you.

Within me you've inspired a new creation;
sparked a new passion
Ignited new words
once dormant
now burning with a purpose.
To tell the world
that I love you,
that I'm yours,
that you've stolen my heart
and bound me to your soul.
These words,
along with me,
are eternally yours.

Naked
Without my armor
She strips me of my shield
Taking with it the world
The worry
The burdens
Healing me
Embracing me
Clothing me in her love
I now wear the richest coat
The strongest fabric
Her

The embrace says it all.
Your head resting on my chest,
our bodies pulled tightly together.
You breathe me in,
listening to my heartbeat.
The warmth of my breath across your skin ,
the strength of my arms are enough.
You come back for more.
In this moment
you are not mine;
I am yours.

I laid down to rest one afternoon under a tree on Raven Hill.
Broad roots stretching wide to invite me against her base.
As I nestled there, I could feel the heartbeat of life pulsing through her.
The roots twisted and turned like a Celtic knot, deep with history.
Time has strengthened her through hardship and neglect;
Yet here she stands with grace and majesty.
Her smooth trunk reaches heavenward, and is topped with lush red fruit.
Enamored and tempted, I ask her for a gift from her bounty.
With the shifting winds she bend and places her fruit in my hands.
And as I taste it's sweetness, I become transformed.
I find myself taking root in the ground beside her,
Growing tall and wrapping my arms around her as we intertwine our branches.
In time we will stand together, grafted into one another,
While our joint fruit spreads throughout the world, as the most cherished delicacy.
Together we shall be one tree of life, there on Raven Hill.

Like a beacon she calls me.
Illuminating the skyline over the mountains,
Sounding like a siren across the ocean,
The bolt of lightning in the desert Storm that makes the night day.
Her soul shines for me,
And mine, raises to meet hers,
Carrying me like a homing pigeon,
Flying to the source of the call:
Of love,
Of life,
Of the place to be home.
My heart leads me to her,
For there I belong.
No distance is too great, no ocean to wide, or valley too deep.
I hear it,
The sweetest sound.
It dances in the rhythm of her heartbeat,
Luring me,
Captivating me.
She was made for me.
My soulmate.

I ordered coffee
But then she walked in the shop
Espresso ignored

The world was left behind
As we soared into the clouds
Our private escape waiting for us
The birds welcomed the new lovers
And sang along with the sounds of joy
Consummating the wildness in our hearts
The rain gently patters down,
And the leaves blow in the breeze
Fanning the passion between us
The animal hunger arises again
Only to feast on each other
To consume us in desire
Your are my bride
And I am yours forever

I love your smile
Your laugh
Your Whimper
Your moans
Your cries
Your breaths
The air around you is filled with your presence
Your smell
Your soul fills me
And fules me
To be better for you
That one day
I may be worthy

Escape with me
into pools of tranquility,
Where love flows
Boundless like the river
Recklessly like a food
Washing over us
Consuming us
Streaming around and through us
Until it defines us.

Find me in the shadows
Take me by the hand
Lead me to your hideaway
Devour me with a renewed hunger

I'm craving you like air
My mind wanders
drifting off in thoughts of you
Floating on dreams of your presence
And memories of our afternoons
My mind fades away every night
into the darkness of sleep
but the Light of you fills my mind
My dreams
My hopes
My future.
