Sonnet XXXX....hands caressing
J.E. Dorsey
I want you to feel my hands caressing - hot torrents
Sweeping across your forehead - temples, eyes addressing
All the subtle hurts of long lost lovers - swept away
Let your feet, each toe expressive, complete and perfect, rest now floating
And with my hands, these rivers wash away thy worries - quiet sleep
Close your eyes love - O warm kisses across thy breast swimming lightly
Just the slightest touch - skimming electric across soft hairs bending
Under the heat of scorching fingers, sending messages of parting kisses
Lie still and dream - love of amber, dark nightsą - cool breezes
Sip - then blow my breath across thy naked back trembling
Against your shoulders tingling with church bells ringing
It is time to tell you love, now listen - O most marvelous maiden
That you are etched indelible on my soul - perplexing goddess
The golden landscape of loving you, between pleasure and perfection.
