                   STROKE THE HEART, IGNITE THE FLAME


I went on a heathered journey to his heart.
So passionately anxious was I to depart.

To his welcoming mountain cabin in the woods.
I walked through the fresh snow, as best I could.

Where a warm, welcoming, fireplace awaited me.
Through the falling snow I could barely see.

His most alluring shadow on a shade I did see.
Only a few more steps, to be wrapped in those arms 
that winter, magnificently.

The table was set with utter perfection.
Quickly, I entered,nearly running in his direction.

No time for useless chit-chat at all, now.
The candles flickered our shadows on the wall, oh wow!

Oh, night of passion’s amberness, truly divine, 
two magical lovers, intertwined.
A kingdom of tenderness, when I was fully thine.
