Love Poem: The Pinnacle

The Pinnacle

sweet fragrance of perfume

          pheromones on satin sheets

                    scented spice of devotion

                              hot cinnamon fragrance

                                        cool lavender bouquet 

                                                  and sandalwood balm


all I need is your skin to breathe in desire and gather all my senses

we feast on each other like wild bees on honey with butterfly wings


wide open belladonna eyes

          of almond shaped seduction

                    sea weed shades glancing

                              bright focussed attention

                                        your pupils my teacher

                                        glazed vision embraced


when I succumb to the irresistible lure of the night’s twinkling sparkle 

the moment becomes a tattoo of pleasure in the shape of our moon


words on the canvas of velvet

           sweet tremolo’s vibrations

                     quivering sounds of delight

                               crescendos and tongues

                                         sharing rhapsodic kisses

                                                   to a symphony of pure joy


waxing and waning a cascade teases and soothes tunes in abandon

like violins and piano keys we waltz through drum beats in our hearts


magic touches growing ecstasy

          wandering finger tipped buttons

                    stroke curves and promises

                              caress cradle and harbour 

                                        straddle tender emotions 

                                                  mount valleys and peaks


two bodies unite and meander to the delta as an oasis nurtures the desert

palm tress guard the secret union when we become joined at hips and soul


dawn splashes mango tinged skies

          a flash of exhaustion yields on repeat

                    an infinite horizon blushes in awe

                              dew on pigment bows in and out

                                        fresh sensation reaches for more

                                                  seeds another naked moment


blushed in afterglow of satisfaction fulfilled replenished and full of faith into

compassion peace kindness and togetherness we savour the flavour of love
