Love Poem: As Passion Woke

As Passion Woke

The moon's light will brush with a gentle stroke
Upon faces hidden by shadow's dark
Soft eyes now revealed as passion woke
Lovers embrace under moon's nightly arc
Welcome its lush rays as nightbirds embark
And cherish jeweled whispers when needs conspire
Beautiful hearts rushing into love's fire

Moon ray shadows paint the face of desire
And kiss lover's lips with a moonlite wish
Magical light to caress and inspire
As lovers kiss again to reminisce
Lost in fog of shared moment's welcomed bliss
Abandon by senses beneath moon light
Defines forever this bright fiery night
