A million stars to see my lover

All of us begin strangers. A wise man had many friends and family by his side.

                        
(Live fast. Died young. Be wild. Have fun.   Lana Del Rey.)


                    A million stars to see my sweet lover

The sounds of the tropical forest is near.
Small shack hidden in the back of a lonely mountain.
The tropical night heat leave us hot and free of blankets.
The mosquito net is around us.
Protecting us from the bugs of the night.

Pretty dark eyes beauty whispered to me.
"We drank too much rum. The night is long. Look at the million stars above us.
So many we cannot count. What do two strangers do in the midnight hours?
Do we get up and dance or do we allow the night to lead us to places where
two people find salvation and peace in each other arms."

I looked at the million stars lighting up the mystical night.
I looked at my erotic beauty. Long black hair flowing covering soft breasts and tender skin.
I whispered to her. "Strip away our clothing. Strip away leaving nothing to hide. Strip me down to bare skin
where our two bodies are holding tightly and we become one."

The gentle and soft breeze of the fan cool two bodies looking for some sort of peace.
Long sweet kisses lead to wild dances into passion.

The morning light appeared.
I touch my tropical princess from face to her  soft legs.
She smiled and asked. "Did you awake in a better place than you fell asleep?"
I brought her closer and whispered. Thank you.

My Dear Writing Friend,
I have mused this poem for several days, came back to it on and off for several reads. Most of my thoughts were along the déjà vu line of thought. Different location that being Alaska, the sounds of the forest, a small cabin, and mosquitoes from hell. I still own that mosquito net that saved our lives for many midnight suns. No stars can be seen in my summer, it’s to light.
Yes I think I did wake up in a better place than where I settled down for the night. And I was changed for life. Your creative word tapestry brought back old memories that even very dusty, still bring a smile.

Blessings, Laughing-Bear

you have a beautiful way of displaying imagery i cannot find a particular line that struck a cord because they all do.

Thank you for reading and the comment. Lana Del Rey music gave me some positive motivation.

a celebration of life, love and the joy of loving in the moment, the moment that can be hot and peaceful and drunken and sweaty all at once. Very evocative and atmospheric!

[jacob erin-cilberto]

very romantic piece..

first line should be "are near"

third line "heat leaves us"

but such beautiful writing here.

breathtaking background for a very passionate night.

Thank you Jacob for the help and reading.

Quite romantic and sensual, this painting of perhaps a first night two lovers spend together. And true, that no matter how long we have known one another, until we remove the space and walls between us, bear our hearts, we will never truly know each other. Did you awake in a better place? It seems so...

[Coyote Poetry]

Thank you for reading and the comment. Always better to awake with good company.

[Diana]

A good message. Live a life of passion and strip away what doesn't matter.

"The tropical night leave us"- Should be leaves

Other than that not much in the way of grammatical mistakes... You asked so I answered.

Thank you Diana for the help and reading.
