Embrace
In the waking of the moon
with the tender kiss of night,
love’s perfume fills the air,
adrift upon the breeze.
My heart begins to flutter
like a thousand tiny wings.
The anticipation thrills me
and my heartaches I release.
The warmth that overcomes me
is a comfort to my soul,
as I bathe in our sweet love
in your delicate embrace.
