The tranquil summer night whispers.
I watch the darkness
behind the veil of branches,
dressed in the vanishing light
entering the wide open windows.
It is time for bed.
I take my clothes off.
With closed eyes
I inhale the smell of the recent rain
and I shiver
thinking of you.

Your second stanza is a poem all by itself, my Friend. This is quite lovely & tender, Sweetie. Good luck in the contest.
