love poems

ode to earth

lay 

in

warm,

wet

earth

rock

back and forth, 

up and down, 

head over heels,

round and round

come

with

colors,

breath,

life

tides

She knelt

on her knees

in the water. 

She felt 

the swirl 

around her thighs 

as it moved 

back and forth

with the tide. 

She tasted 

the salt 

of the water 

as it splashed, 

caressing her face, 

touching her lips. 

She listened 

to the elemental song 

of the water 

as it shushed the evening 

with a lullaby 

for the ages. 

She looked 

with brown eyes

at the shades 

of blue water 

as it moved gently 

toward the sky.

hold each other

Kiss passionately upon the tender kiss, and tenderly

upon the passionate kiss. 

Again and again.

Make love in colors.

Yellows.

Reds.

Blues.

Oranges.

Purples.

Greens.

Primary to secondary, secondary to primary.

Create beauty.

Hold each other

so as much of your bodies 

can touch

as possibly can.
