Love Poem: Dawn

Dawn


My love awakens me
with playful purrs,
with kitty licks 
and padded paws -- 

we are never far
from our primitives, 

to know the world by
touch, and God through 
tactile mystery, replicating
senses till soaring -- 

Oh, one can philosophize
and theologize!
or one can cling to the
moment~ lips diving,
arms like vulture wings
enfolding, love’s cooing
triggering a salivating, primal 
response – Coffee can wait!
