Shadows Deep on the pine straw
the smell of turpentine with every step
summers full moon glow lights the way
the sound of feet scurry just out of sight
Uphill now, heart is thumping chest is tight
breaths come in deep gasps
straps dig into my shoulders
as I top the summit
Flickering light visible through underbrush
a soft vibrant humming, in the distance,
the outline of a small cabin emerges
a campfire burns, the smell of oak smoke
Dancing in a ring and still humming
porcelain white skin, glowing from the moon
orange hair, made more so by the fire, tossed
naked ******* bounce in time to each step
Sweat flows from the summer and the fires heat
and the exertion of her dance
I sit watching, trying to catch my breath
but it is taken away by her beauty
I pick up a stick and snap it
her head comes up in my direction
a wicked smile upon her face
as she attempts to pick me out of the shadows
Her dance and song change pace
slow and sensual now
as her hands explore her body
and attempt to tease me out of hiding
I slowly and silently creep around
to the other side of the cabin
all the while her dance is focused
becoming more suggestive in the other direction
With a disappointed smile, she stops
and thinks, maybe it was just a deer
she slinks towards the outdoor tub
full of ice cold, snowmelt stream water
I am already there, naked, laying behind
I watch her feet approach
through the clawfeet of the tub
and wait, silent and breathless
She slips into the water with a gasp
skin tightens and ******* *****
I reach up and stroke her skin
she startles and smiles, as I slip in with her.
The water boils with our heat
