Wedding Night

Sunset ignites a fiery sky.

Spray of a timid sea,
Salt on your lips.

The columns in a row,
Standing tall.
Strength by desire,
Against impending night.

Shadows melt into the sand,
Lovers envelop passion.

Through broken rock,
Empty of purpose.
Blazoned orange fingers,
Reach to the sky.

The hand of Zeus,
Picking the strings of
Saturn.

A mandolin tunes the twilight.

Sparkles of heaven,
Guttering the evening.

Darkness falls to night.

A former member wrote: "Darkness falling to the night" creates a very well imagined vision of white satin sheets dusted with the sands of passion, and brought me full circle to the start for a second enjoyable read. Thanx be unto you for sharing such tenderness =}
