Touched

gazing into your eyes
caught
dark pools reflected
my face
captured by your being
stopped
there before you
watching
you see
me

scared
of
diving
into the deep
of seeing
all of you
I looked away

Without you here

I long for
your eyes
touching mine.

A Caress

In the heat of the day
when the sun is almost unbearable
I want to reach out and
draw you under the shade of my tree

There the grass is cool
the water flows freely
All villainy is at bay
Dreams can dance among the leaves.

Beneath the branches all armor can be dropped
the cool breeze can spin between us
interweaving our thoughts
lifting our hopes to
spiral out into the sunlight.

Sweaty Release

Hot red,skin burns
after moving
sliding
gliding
popping

into place
moistening
filling
slick with
salt water relief
hot day, hard work
sensuous swivels
embrace
as two
wash each other
with converging
oceans of longing
