Songs of Love

poetic stirrings
in Findon
songs of love

footprints
on the Aussie soil
the rainbow speaks of hope

the desert rose
hovers in my orbit
feeding my hungry soul…
her divine
hotness flows
through my veins
rising
like a mountain of energy
like this divine nectar on my lips
giving birth to boundless desire

inspired by the deepest
passions within my humble heart
i scale
the heights
of dreaming; longing for you
designing
an intricate tapestry of the future
garnished with the warmth of love particles
fusing
the past and present

now, I live
in blissful
contentment
holding
up the sky
tending
the hormonal flame
in full blossom
nurturing
the sweet buds of love with glee

you turn on the light
yearning
for rapture
as oestrogen captures
the moment
with a brave and roving thought
gradually
revealing your true essence
before
my naked eyes
