Passionate Wonder Awakens
laying in the pre-dawn quiet wondering
if your steady shallow breathing is untroubled sleep
or a wandering mind prone to thoughts of our nakedness
like mine is
blissfully knowing the only thing keeping
us from each other and our physical ecstasy
is allowing time to decide who will make the first move
because once we begin we both know we can’t stop
until we’ve topped the world
and come back down to earth in breathless abandon
sweaty and satisfied and comfortably weary
tangled and peaceful
welcoming the dawn is a treasure
we discover together again everytime
our bodies and minds entwine all of our senses
passionate wonder awakens
