The Watcher/Poetry

The Keeper

Good night, moon.
You wink.
I smile.
We share a secret
voyeur, friend, protector
bright orb that connects
hungry hearts by
a silver lifeline of dreams.

So sensuous,
your mystery
sings to all souls,
taunting them with the
hope of possibility.
Then suddenly you are
gone!

Night moves in, so close..
darkness fills  my heart until
you return, full and glowing
once more, taunting me
with my desire
reflected in the glow of your
satisfied transformation.

Shall we dance,
strip bare our reserve,
leave off the mask of reality
and dive into the ocean of desire
together? 
The sea trembles ‘neath your
gentle caress
shared moments of ecstasy
as you giggle with delight.

Winking.
Blinking.
Sinking
into the distant horizon,
chased into shame by the
harsh, laughing sun
who keeps no secrets.
Our hearts you must keep
until we meet again.

Good night.
