Between Your Sheets (A Poem)

I don't write poems very often but figured I'd make an attempt this weekend and share with you.

Between Your Sheets – December 18, 2011
As you lie on your back,
And look into the skies,
With your fingers in the clouds
With full care you take
The light into your heart
And beams off your smile.
Is when you fall between the leaves
Is when I snuck between your sheets.

The warmth of your touch
And the touch of your soul
Guides the weight of your heart
Back to the heart of your life

And while you are searching
For that one rock of sand
The time passed along
The riverbed of life
Back to the place
Where stars streaked
Backwards across the street
Under the lamplight of
Lightning flies and
Twinkling skies.

Falling into your satin bed
The flowers petals under your head
Our fingers weave like rose vines
The sun sits on your curving spine
As you kiss my cheek
Discovering me between your sheets.
