Ode to the Goddess

Ode to the Goddess

A moment’s moan’s a melody, your breath beside my ear

That sweetest groan that shelters me, the death of all my fears

A glance affirming inter-soul intention to ascend

Entrances, causing inter-polar tension to suspend…

Until you shift, at last, and lift, excruciatingly

And I am swiftly cast adrift upon a velvet sea

Of waving undulations in the swirling indigo

A prayer of veneration in the curling of your toe.

Your sultry eyes are glistening,

Your pulse is flying, flickering

Electrfiying, quickening

But then you’re sighing, whispering:

“Too much, too soon, we’ve each come so far.

We’re touching the moon. Let’s reach for the stars.”

A gust, and the candle flames sizzle and sputter

A thrust, and your supple frame tangibly shudders

Inducing devotional rising elation

Infusing in motion surprise syncopation

The tumbling rhumba, the rumbling samba

Staccato salsa, and thundering mamba

You mix it up, you fix it up

You see the candle flicker up

You writhe, alive, arriving in the groove

You lithely glide, and sliding as we move

Together in orbit and through the expanding

Forever absorb it, this new understanding:

The nature of grace, and I’ve found what I’m after:

The light in your face and the sound of your laughter.
