Dripping

Tonight shall we swim a river in ecstasy’s sensations

bathing their enticement upon our hearts,

strolling into the bathroom,

where a bubble bath waits with cherry scent,

making the moment our chamber of subtle gasps.

Slowly stripping away our robes,

stopping to cherish each new exposed delight

with those approving embraces,

letting my fingers sway release of any cares

traveling across the tension

massaging your neck and shoulders

kissing each spot they touched

until I know you have slipped away

from that stress gown

and are ready to immerse in the warm watery magic.           

Allowing the aromas of lavender and honeysuckle

which are tangentially tantalizing the air

cause the precious perfume of calm

to appear within you eyes.

Taking a moment of pressing our flesh as one

amid the amber glow of candles

until I see the baptism pleading in your gaze.

Climbing in first,

holding your hand as you join me,

our soapy and slippery bodies

sliding back and forth

in our naked sultry dance of cleansing over any concerns,

taking a soft cloth,

gently exploring and bringing to a boil

the simmering stew of passion’s immersion.

Sipping on chilled wine,

picking up a strawberry,  dipping it in chocolate

and placing it before your mouth,

my lips slowly placing love nibbles upon your ears.

Writing my poem of adoration in breath

to echo so deep within,

waiting for the moment of dripping

when we sink below the surface of thoughts

with you becoming my mermaid

submerged in a sudsy sea of intimate swells.
