Yule Lovers

I know it is early ... but I could not resist ... :-)

Yule Lovers

Smokey log fire crackles

And splashes its embers

Upon the glowing grate

Flickering ambient flames

Hypnotically pulse visions

Of passionate Yule lovers

Cinnamon flavoured wine

Still tastes upon lush lips

As gentle kisses caress

Entwining bodies clinch

In reciprocal celebration

Of their special evening

Unmatched shared gifts

In ardent tender touches

Complete cohesive joy

So to savour passions

External earth’s events

Forgotten for a moment

Thus altruistic fulfilment

Brings elated contentment

On their exclusive night

this is beautiful....and reminds me of the many Christmases i had with ex wives or ex girlfriends that were always special..
and then i remember one Christmas Eve....that was so chaotic...
no "tender touches" just angry words..
this poem would have helped that Christmas for sure.
this is about all the good things...and what the Eve and Day really mean.

Dickens should have considered this when he wrote "Christmas Carol."

your poem inspires me to make a date night............ tonight!!! ;) "altruistic" tho a goal that elevates all activities .. doesn't quite fit for me in this otherwise softly passionate scene ... but it does add another dimension ... i don't think you have jumped the gun with this one sir ... i think its always timely :)
