In the glory of your love,

I lie naked on satin,

Our eyes transfixed

As I watch you undress,

You murmur words in Latin.

Now you peel off your shirt,

I watch your muscles ripple.

You unfasten your belt

And bend to suck my nipple.

I reach for you

But you escape my grasp

To discard the last of your clothes.

Excitement runs through me

As you join me at last,

We kiss with aching longing,

I feel your heart beat fast.

You whisper words of love to me,

In adoring fashion.

Skilful hands roam my body

Until it arches with passion.

Your foreplay teases

And then it pleases,

Bringing me to the heights.

Flesh against flesh,

Skin upon skin,

My body hungrily

Welcomes you in.

Through the good times and bad,

We’ve been so in love

For quite a few years,

Sharing whatever life throws at us,

Our hopes, our dreams, our fears.

Moonlight snakes through

Hastily drawn curtains.

A breath of a breeze

Hits my bedside candle.

It flickers

Then recovers,

Like our love,

Too hot to handle!

Moving together

Sensuously dramatic,

Giving pleasure

So ecstatic

Until at last we cry out in bliss,

Once recovered, seal with a kiss.
