In the shadows
of the morning
he and she did look
each upon the other
face to face
love to love
fingers tracing cheeks.
he whispered
aching for her alone
-there was none besides her
she was she
she traced her fingers
along the shadowed creases
of his jaw and chin
whispering
‘my beloved’
as into him
she melted.
eyes to eyes
finger tips to finger tips
each the other
worshiped
each the other
loved.
