Fire's Breath

                                         Fire’s Breath 

 

I arch my body toward the stars 

To feel your hand in touch 

To whisper words you cannot hear 

But words transform in love 

 

I reach to hold your firm strong arms 

To press you even closer 

To hold you fast within my loin 

I celebrate my lover 

 

Tonight resounds within my mind 

A vision—impressions 

Tomorrow’s love, soon foretold 

With sweet anticipation 

 

Keep me sheltered in your soul 

Your thoughts dear—caress 

Strength to carry through the day 

I wait for you—your presents 

 

It won’t be long until we love 

Until we kiss impassioned 

Fire’s breath shines through your eyes 

Revealing love—unquestioned
