SEARCHING
The frost of this evening
arranges lace brocade
ice crystals in my window.
The moonlight dances
a ballet of shadows
across my bedroom walls.
My cold, naked body becomes
smaller and smaller as my
soul drifts slowly aloft.
I'm a midnight traveler, sneaking
out on some celestial trip across
space and time.
Reaching for an answer that rests
beyond the horizon, farther than
vision allows.
DISCOVERY
I look for you in the hills, spot
an inviting glade surrounded by
trees bathed in gold.
I find your golden body
in bright rays of sunlight,
pink lips softly parted.
You lie in a sea of green,
stretching long limbs
and flexing sleek muscles.
Nature becomes you in sleep,
as a soft breeze sweeps
through your bronze hair.
You stir ever so slightly
as my soul settles slowly down
to nestle in your arms.
