Faces that flush,
Eyes half closed.
Hearts that beat,
Hands..sweaty..hot.
Hair caressing redened cheeks,
Trembling mouths that don't speak...
Excitement,elation,a deep burning fire.
Timidly she rises from her bed of roses
Averting her eyes from his wanton gaze,
Hearing his breathing quicken...
He watches her every move,
Standing awkwardly, hands dug in pockets,
Trying to hide his bashfulness,
Reluctant to speak..to her.
She who is so meek,pure,an untouched flower.
Look!
There she glides down the green velvet hill
Hoping he will follow.
He follows...
His innocence wearing thin.
Running after her down and down to the bottom of the hill
Until-
In silence they sit together,
Drowning in each other's eyes.
