Between dusk and night
warm light around drapes.
The cool night engine slowly stirs
a low hum.
The soft velvet green slips aside.
The quiet bass of the evening disjointed
Brought closer
Syncopated, yet still closer.
In tune.
Natures hardest work.
Done in the dark
The green shoot breaks free, pushes,
Farther up, farther in
Feels the night air
So recently alone now a pair
Deep bass growing
Shaking loose the day
Dawn a distant horizon,
eternity here in the dark
Heated night.
Growing tangled
Tearing down
Violently gentle
Caring soft
Struggling
Dancing
Touching
As.
One.
And nothing.
Never to go back.
Never apart,
but one.
The blanket of velvet green evening.
Breath held an extra beat.
No longer night, almost dawn.
Under a downy cover, lightening blue,
dew covered, spent.
