A Grand Poem

 

 

“I love you like a grand poem.”

Like a poem that reflects the beauty of night
In the arms of a sleeping lover
Through his content breath
 

Into the sweet scent of satisfaction

 

“I Love you like a grand poem.”

A poem that reflects the beauty of a day

Under a silky sheet of roses

An admirer is seeking his love

And holds on to the feelings of satisfaction
With her aroma on his mind

 

“I love you like a grand poem.”

A poem that reflects the art of pleasure
In the midst of two bodies

That brings the joy of contentment
And as a grand poem

With amusement of its meaning

That awakens our sleepy thoughts with the lush feelings of dawn
