On Waking

On Waking

 

Once upon awakening

yet

before the first kiss of dawn

both her retina’s

caressed and blinking

pastel strobe effects are born

Then his poem swiftly read before

She took her breakfast

On the lawn

Partly ritual and now

Part her famous repartee…

 

Only moments later tho

Her palms went searching

and so very

very desperately

For that place she thought

his shadow slept

It was then no less

he realised

That he wanted to be forever

in her depths and debt…

 

Twas also then he noticed

broken leather sandal strap

and discarded robe so very

full of the scent Patchouli

Ah’ yes both arms were

stretched about her head and

legs well kissed and wet with

sweet dew from somewhere set

A golden triangle beckoned…
