her take-me eyes closed beneath
his take-you kiss, breath and senses
joined as the world beyond re-made
itself for bliss and turned, ever slow,
in embrace of waiting stars lest they
fell unseen into the virgin darkness.

dawn, unveiled in sunrise, slipped
gentle arms around them as they lay
in unraveled sheets and skin flushed
warm with after-loving sheen, breath
and senses calm again as the world
turned, ever-slow, in their embrace.
