The humdrum life

of day to day

Is transformed now

by his touch

His kisses

as they smother me

transform me

oh so much

He paints his pictures

on my heart

I’m gilded by his tongue

Each movement

of his lips on me

Calls forth a mighty song

Enraptured by his

presence now

I cannot be the same

washed by his vivid vibrancy

my body all aflame

~

In love’s incandescent library

where vows

illuminate eternity

He is her heart's librarian

he softly reads her silence

in her darkness deep

silken touch of his gentle care

a solace to her soul

in pages of time

tales of true love

forever's bookmark
