BENEATH OLD ASHES, AND OTHER POEMS

By Donovan Baldwin


beneath old ashes

a single ember ignites...

she fans into flames


-----


sweet infectious smile

soft eyes aglow with kindness...

words create desire


-----


the secrets she shares

once done only in private...

now part of their love


-----


ebon and silver

light and dark hills and hollows...

hidden and revealed


-----


intimate embrace

sharing intense sensations...

beyond our bodies


-----


wicked wet kisses

and intimate embraces...

delicious delights


-----


from dawn's unveiling

daring mother nature in...

her naked beauty


-----


dark petals folded

her garden's single flower...

opens at his touch


-----


beach too far away

fifty years or more ago...

when i was a boy


-----


innocence staggered

by storms of her emotions...

gales of wild desires


----


beneath the blanket

we read each other by touch...

re-read the best parts


-----


two lovers sharing

sunset's orgy of colors...

though a world apart


-----
