Beautiful Destiny

Beautiful Destiny


She wraps her arms around him 
The warmth of her body
Kissing him passionately 
Her lips soften with desire
Disbelieving his presence
Her eyes sparkle with wonder 
 
They hold each other in an ardent embrace
An unspoken longing filling their senses
Neither one has the breath to say a word
He can feel her body acquiesce to his touch
As he witnesses the emergence of a butterfly
Shiny and new, she unfolds herself to him

He is taken by her extraordinary beauty
In awe of her body’s perfection
Accentuated by the beauty of her soul
A goddess fulfilling the fantasy unknown
God’s masterpiece truly complete
The most beautiful form for his eyes to behold

A common desire captures them
They cannot contain the yearning any longer
The careful distance vanishing with every passing moment
He gently releases the feelings that have threatened to spill over
Like a sculptor, he carefully lets his passion take shape
His restraint belying the imminent tide of desire that threatens

His passion matched by hers, she brings her own 
As the earth becomes motionless and heaven envies 
They wait no longer
The wave of desire washing away the ache
Destiny fulfilled as they come together
The most perfect of unions, love made for the first time
