My Love Lies Bleeding (Part Iii)

I will never let her go again, neither turn away my attention from 
her.  She is my love.  These silent vows I make, as we, abreast, pass over the 
amaranths to the stream to gather chestnuts among the stars.  We are restored 
with the vine on grassy banks, and my love lies sighing, while I rest between her 
supple breasts.  Her hair is lain in waves upon my cheek and neck, and with our 
fingers we curl each other's locks, weaving them with wild flowers to 
complement her ribbons. 
                            Suddenly, a quartet of songbirds sing our song, and my love is 
compelled to flit and flutter through the meadows in joy and laughter, glancing at 
me with playful invitations.  So, I give chase, studying her bounces and realizing 
no marks are left upon her callipygian.  Reaching forth, alas, catching her, I 
sweep her around in a toe dance.  
                           My hands caress her voluptuous form and rest securely around 
her waistline at the small of her back, while she strokes the girth of my flesh.  
She holds fast my body, and with her arms around my neck, I lift and place her.  
She surrounds me and embraces me with her legs.  Her hips slowly gyrate with 
mine; as we gaze into each other's eyes with soft and broken, wet kisses, I gently 
lay her down, once more, among the impressed meadow rues, as the 
meadowsweets look on in the field of flowers.
