for today and for always

artwork by Konstatin Razumov

from the moment
the burning tongue of dawn
licks the sky
        i hunger for your touch
when red arrows of dusk
pierce through clouds
      i crave your kiss
the musky breeze whispers
to enflamed palm fronds
an inferno is sparked
     and so the yearning continues
naughty stars of night
incite passion
my soliloquy is never - changing
mon amour, pour aujourd'hui et pour toujours

Author's Note

mon amour, pour aujourd'hui et pour toujours = my love for today and for always

Your welcome. I've been away from WC a while and there a lot of writers here that I haven't got a chance to meet and read so I'm catching up. (: Thank you for your reviews as well.

dear Lydi... your tantalizing expressions
excite the dawn of amour. Lingering in
the breeze of freesia scented passion
stirs the day with gentle passion.
truly... Pat
