Words From The Heart-Poems

Stay Tonight

Shall I kiss those rose painted lips and
Trace your rising breasts with grazing fingertips?

Suckle your pinkish buds that bloom
Year after year to each potential groom?

Descend your navel, a well traveled slope and
Become your newest dalliance of momentary hope?

Drink dew from down covered pearls
Scented musk enveloped in curls ?

Slip out long before words of love part your mouth
With laudanum laced dreams drifting south?

And then will you awaken just once within the
Arms of one who stayed past the rising sun?
