spun around, you found me
and together we danced
drummed up a sweet Earth rhythm -
dirty rich like top soil
funny like a worm farm
feet caressed by her overflowing love
massaged by an ever growing beauty
caught in a tidal sway
and in the soft sunbeam of the morning
i fly gently away.
Curious fingers follow
shifting light rays
i reach for you, you disappear
shining on my belly
so radiant, round and smooth
i find you again
smile in delight,
oh how you tease!
then with eyes almost closed
i slip into my own rhythm
slide my hips to the left and back
pulling with me last night’s dream
starry colors of yesterday
smear into dawn
filter through you
and with a shudder a thousand echos deep
patterns escape my heartbeat
emanate into the atmosphere.
Your warmth jumps gingerly
across my closed lids
i spin around in wonder
feeling loose in my skin
so free in my heart.
Eyes blinking open
i slide away on purpose
so i may know your shadow better
flitter about in darkness
bask in the contrast
peer over the edge
too cold in your absence
humbly i seek your radiance
wrap myself in intoxicating secrets
uplifted by the promise you hold
a-muse myself again and again
thumpity thump thump
so in love with this game
fearless for a simple moment
remembering how to play
in the soft sunbeam of the morning
i fly gently away.
