She weaves roses in her hair, wears the scent of peonies against her skin. I've never danced naked in moonlight, but with her I'm sure I would. I want to hold her close, her body sliding over mine as the moon rises and then tangles us in shadow. Unfurl me layer by layer, uncover light few lovers ever see.

The lines that stood out for me were: I've never danced naked in moonlight, but with her I'm sure I would. And my response: I've never danced naked in moonlight... (Tumbling Tercets) He inspires me to feel the softness and silence of light, to cup my hands just enough to let some of it spill through… rinsing our feet as it falls, pooling for us to splash in as we dance and stir the mist~ swirling residual wishes, hopes we share and embrace Written for Toonersworld Quotes That Inspire Challenge ~ choosing lines from Cartooner's "My Flower Child" ~ © 2008 SilentDream (All rights reserved) 3/19/08
