Love's Caress
Warm the hand to caress the face of love
To linger softly, pause upon the skin
Smiles offer a gentle wish to dream of
As we find the primordial again
From the eyes of reverence and silence
We have tethered ourselves without a word
In a timeless world of shared compliance
Only our rhythmic heartbeats can be heard
This feathered touch with its smooth trailing trace
This realm caressed in solemn solitude
Will measure the fervor of our embrace
With tender moments from love's interlude
To brush the face of my love, to express
In love's sanctuary, lovers confess
