Infinite Fields

Come 

into my arms 

fire of the dawn

I am ready 

for the soft gust

of your sighing

ready to 

reach out

with my hand

to draw you

close to me

I want to see

how your lashes 

sweep down 

to shield your

smoldering eyes

I want to see

you shudder 

with desire

like the white waves 

breaking on the sand

already the flame

of the celestial sky

is burning 

in my hearth

and licking 

up my legs

and over me 

the heavens

are leaning down

white clouds

plumed like feathers

streaming out 

into the infinite 

fields 

glowing like 

water sapphires.
