~Silver Thread'd Divertimento ~

Watching a swaying Chinese lantern
in colors the shade of your smile
Paper laced dreams in curvature shapes…
suspended silver threads…

Ripples of koi pond whispers
slowly beckon in moonlit gestures,
as we sit counting fireflies,
hypnotized by our beating hearts

Cascades serenade,
enchanting the evening divertimento
Lotus blossom fingertips softly
caress parted lips…smooth

As I drink of your fragrance,
tasting the flavors, your moistened touch
simmering upon each breath…
warm, offering a honey’d embrace

Gazing longingly upon porcelain skin,
tempting star shine glow…
we melt as one, mouths entwined
drenched in serenity
  
while deep within our silence we speak,
not of voice…but of love
