Primrose breath soaks the air,
veiled caress on worn skin.
I seek your soothing presence
beneath silver witch's moon.
Your whispered serenades
pull my obedient heart
through the moonstone curls
of midnight's April haze.
To core of pulsing light
sewn with verdant floral lace,
behind which hawk feather quills
outline the air in visions.
There my soul sees your shivering life
hidden behind sage's willow bark,
spirit born to be loved
with tender breaths of adoration.

Wonderful how well each line seems to reflect
the title given. And too, you weave in several
elements assigned to this being. I do spot a
few minor edits as follows:
"obedient" is misspelled
"There my souls sees your shivering life" where
souls should not be plural
"with tender breaths of adorations" where
adoration should not be plural
I do admire the way the piece begins and ends
with "breath". The whole write seems filled
with the presence of something alive & awesome.
