I have a dream The gentle tread Cool marble beneath my feet Sweet succulent scents laced in the lavender air Velvet curtains parted You there Stretched out supine A banquet of delights you are mine The rustling flutter of garments Let them fall Echoed wetness Your hands leave their ghosts On glistening walls Cascading flurried ringlets Tendrils of hair Caught up in the excitement Of you And me unsullied Pristine between Egyptian cotton and whispers of skin Place a kiss on the altar of we This love begins you know I have a dream.
