Lips Gently Merging

The sky was blue, as deep-blue as the sea
   The grass fresh, and as green as you please
The air redolent of honeysuckle and vine
   Your lips as inviting as a full, rich red wine

The rains crept up softly, the sky hadn't darkened
   Nor to thunder's voice had the two of us hearkened
Held fast by the dreamy look in each other's eyes
   Two lovers in love, mesmerized, hypnotized … 

As we moved ever closer, our lips gently merging
   The rain beat against us, our sweet union urging ---
And when the skies parted, bright sunshine burst through 
   Nestling in the arc of love's rainbow, imbued with her hues
