Sitting together on the lanai
With eyes closed
At the dawn of a new day
Calm, peaceful and still
We meditate while
Birds sing to the rising sun
And then you touch me
Tussle my hair, tickle my skin
And caress my face
Suddenly your all around me
Rippling over my clothes
Bringing a smile to my lips
Oh, my silent lover
So unpredictable and blustery
Sometimes cool, sometimes warm
Yellow Oleander branches quiver
Flowers dance in delight
Grasses sway to and fro
And then, still toying with me
You go breathless
with an energetic stillness
Until the whispers and currents
of your loving embrace
Caress me once again
Why must you keep yourself hidden
So shy … yet available to all
Invisible, like the pulsing of Life itself
Such a precious offering
For those who are willing
To simply quiet their minds
... and observe
... and observe
