Afterglow

 

Enjoy those sleeping moments, when dreams rise to entertain,

As we lay back in afterglow, sharing the warmth that lovers gain,

And while we whisper loving thoughts until sleep comes to stay,

Our last waking thoughts will be of the love we shared today…

 

Then in our dreams we will walk hand in hand as water laps around,

Facing the fullest moon and wondering at the pleasing glow we found

While tiny turtles newly hatched are rushing down the silvered beach

hurrying to safety in the sea before seagulls have them in their reach…

 

And under palm trees we will linger to sit for a while and gently kiss

knowing that even when we wake we will still feel the deepest bliss

For the truest love is ever strong and warms the coldness of the night,

While back in our bed we will slowly wake to resume passions delight…
