BLENDING IN AND SWIRLING AROUND,
CREATING A PICTURE POSTCARD SCENE.
YOUR FACE IS FORCED UPWARD ALLOWING
A KISS FROM THE SUN.
AND YOU REALIZE THIS IS A MAGICAL TIME.
A TIME SET APART, WITH NO PAST OR FUTURE.
SACRED BETWEEN YOU AND THE ELEMENTS.
THE HEAT OF THE DAY STOPS YOU MOMENTARILY
WHERE YOU STAND,
MOLDING ITS HOT FINGERS TO ALL IT CAN HOLD.
LIKE AN ATTENTIVE LOVER PLEADING FOR YOU
TO JOIN IN SWEET SURRENDER.
THE BRIGHTNESS AND WARMTH COMBINE
TO ENCLOSE YOU IN A COCOON,
AND YOU ALLOW IT INSIDE YOUR HEART.
BUT THIS IS NO ORDINARY LOVER
YOU ARE KISSED WITH A BREEZE COOL ENOUGH
TO TICKLE YOUR EAR,
AS IT WHISPERS OF THINGS THAT MIGHT BE.
THIS TO IS ALLOWED INSIDE YOUR HEART.
YOUR MIND FILLS WITH SENSATIONS NEVER
BEFORE FELT,
AND YOU SMILE A SMILE THAT BEGINS
IN YOUR SOUL THEN BLOOMS LIKE A FLOWER
TO INCLUDE YOUR EYES, YOUR CHEEKS, AND FINALLY YOUR LIPS.
A SIGH ESCAPES FROM INSIDE YOU,
AS PASSIONATELY YOU EMBRACE THIS FEELING
TRAVELING THROUGH YOU UNITING
YOUR HEART, SOUL, AND MIND............
