The Afterglow
The Afterglow
And in the morning
as I opened my eyes
I reached out to you
and see the blessing of the sun
hovering on your face
as you sleep; still
in your mind's dream
you are there
and I am there
we are still making love
in the void of time,
where a promised is renewed,
then I touched your face
gently, as the sun turns to golden hues
and a smile broke upon your lips
with your eyes closed
silently; satisfied with your being
as you reached for me further
cradling me into your arms
to hold still
in the afterglow.
