Poetry

i pass soft petals

entering her blossom's heart

love's warm nectar waits

-----

spreading her petals

allows her hummingbird's tongue

nectar his reward

-----

she dare not tell him

all the pleasures he has caused

her other desires

-----

my love's everything

i want all that you desire

perhaps more than you

-----

if i lust at all

i lust for your happiness

that's my first desire

-----

no longer wanted

if i was wanted at all

just a moment's fool

-----

come naked to me

expose your mind and body

let me touch with love
