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

-----

I see you,
Nymph,
Nereid,
Dryad,
Nature goddess,
Bare bodied in
Your natural setting,
Oblivious to stares
Of mortals,
But, sometimes,
One such as I,
Respectful poet,
Catches your heart,
And you pause,
Let me fill
Eyes and heart and spirit,
With the wonder
Of your unclad
Beauty.
