THIS SUDDEN NYMPH, AND OTHER POETRY BY DONOVAN BALDWIN
By Donovan Baldwin
i smile to see her
this sudden nymph in moonlight
dashing to my arms
-----
i turned and reached out
one last blind attempt at love
and you took my hand
-----
she's so intimate
drops all that hides her beauty
of body and soul
-----
stripped bare in their love
with nothing to hide behind
surrendering all
-----
it's no illusion
gift of love i offer you
a mystery the same
-----
moan that song for me
the pleasure song with no words
we both love to sing
-----
your moonlight kisses
sending me to my slumbers
appear in my dreams
-----
plucking her flower
caress the stem and petals
nectar on fingers
-----
i know not her shape
kiss caress and word make me
blind at her beauty
-----
we told fairy tales
believing in fantasies
then our stories touched
-----
