Morning Tenderness

A love poem ...

I awake from slumbers deep ….my eyes still full of sleep

But the morning sun refreshes me .. welcoming me to the day

I feel your softness next to me .. and I smile…

A tenderness washes over me as I gently stroke your back and you stir …

Such love is pounding in my heart .. a drumbeat of togetherness

Your passion from the night is still upon me …

A fervent desire still throbs in my soul .. burned into my memory..

Another beautiful moment to cherish and adore …

I see the brightness of our love .. like a beacon rising over the hills..

Guiding us ever onwards to more happiness and joy …

I kiss your sweet and tender lips as your eyelids flutter ..

And I feel your heartbeat next to mine .. a rhythm of pure love…

Your smile as you sense the first moments of the day …and feel my hand upon you ..

A gentleness washes over us .. as the sea caresses the shore …

I whisper I LOVE YOU .. and your eyes reply so beautifully …

I know the raging torrent of passion in that moment …

As your love reflects in my eyes and we hold each other close…

Our nakedness a testament to our being .. our life as one …

The silence resounds gently in our souls..

No words necessary .. just the feather light touch of our lips and our fingers meeting ..

Love conquers all .. and shows us our destiny..

For our future is as one together …. always there for the other..

Always sensing and feeling the others’ needs …

A depth of understanding that is unique between two lovers..

Only they can understand … only they can know…

And as you snuggle into my arms and we melt into one …

I kiss you softly and thank my lucky stars for the day that I met you …..

My life is now complete ………….

And as you snuggle into my arms and we melt into one "
phil, this poem is absolute passion, and sentimental love held for the treasure close to your heart,
its blissfully conveyed with a sense of peaceful surrendering of two souls becoming one in a raptured
moment of happiness and knowing the future is bright, as seen through the eyes of love, the design,
straight sentence flow kept the charm and thought punctuated for with specific effect, beautiful
effort scribed with ease, one can feel the sensuous environment come to life in your words.

It gets no more positive than this! Sometimes I can't stay with such positiveness though...but I am always glad it is there as a sort of reservoir to turn to for refreshment. But I agree with previous comments, you are lucky to be so fulfilled and you capture it perfectly in this poem. Some may never know the feelings you capture here.
