As I look

watching while lovers sleep

AS I LOOK

Lying in sleep,
Between sheets and a world of dreams,
May you be taken,
Enfolded by rose scented petals of desire.

Helpless in dreams of contentment,
Turning this way and that
While lovers float
On leafy lanes
To passion

I watch your eyes,
Closed by lids of sleep,
As in my arms,
You stay, replete

This is heaven,
Not clouds of whispy white
But being here
With you tonight
