Love Poem: Sense and Sensuality

Sense and Sensuality

In the coverlet of scented dusk, 
I feel you closely watch the swell 
And contours of my fluid shape, 
Lithe willow in the perfumed musk 
That drifts around, aflame with spice, 
Aromatic, piquant, sweet as well; 
A single gasp may then escape, 
A heady breath of fire and ice. 

And as you look, your pulse I track, 
Below the surface of your skin, 
My eyes adjusted to the night, 
Observes your essence there and back. 
The hollow naval I espy, 
Provokes my mind to wondering 
If sense and sensuality might 
Be bread and wine to you and I...
