Us.
Stars in crocus clusters
wink wide heavenly eyes
at us while moon's lustrous
belly bends earthward to spy
covert at naked peace, lying,
after unfettered yield happily
sated with hands wrapped
around fingers and listening
to tidal-lap's gentle singing.
When desire bridges time
ageless rivers float smiles
to those seeking who find.

I feel a little sorry for you folks in the northern hemisphere; although your poem captures richly the wonder of the heavens, Fay, if you came south I believe your entry here would probably cause MPS to start smoking....... and then there's the passion in a climate (certain seasons) conducive to....
Oh yes - I have seen pictures of your amazing show of brilliant stars Dave - - ours here are bright but rarely shooting as I believe yours in that hemisphere do. Thanks a load for your visit and review of an imagined love-night beneath stars and moon.
Ah....... love under the "ol moon and stars"
Yup - - love under starry heavens and moon -- what could be better my friend -well we can all dream on eh Lorna ?
'wink wide
heavenly eyes, at us
while moon's lustrous belly
bends, earthward to spy'..
really liked the flow
and as-always you imagery is majestic
thanks for sharing, dear Fay

Well great balls of fire Nev - -- I never knew you needed a read to get going - - ha ha - - - so glad you enjoyed the time spent with Us...........x
That 'within loves halo' feeling brings forth our wonderment about our surroundings and where we fit into the vast scheme of everything. There are no bigger surroundings than the sky above and around us and when seen on a cloud free night it can give that inclusive feeling that you two are simply meant to be.
Your romantic poem brings out the romantic in me LOL.
Ah - I love the romantic being brought out from your warm heart dear Dusk - -thank you for liking my take on two lying under the night skies and being at one with all the survey - including each other of course........ so glad to have your intuitive comment my friend.
So very true Fay, time can be ageless in our lives.
Andy
Too true my friend - love outlasts time and no doubt about it.
