A Night of White Satin

 

White satin

That revealed itself

Only on touch;

Deceptively prim

To behold, yet on the first

Fleeting caress on bare skin

Oozing a cold burn that blazed

 

Daring me

To bare

As never did before

Even in the secret darkness

Of my bridal chambers;

Never before had been lured

Thus, to reveal and revel

 

Alone in the soft

Filtering light

And the soft intermittent chiming

Of the tower clock, in a land

Unknown, yet newly embraced

Along with the drunkenness of

A newfound peace

 

I undressed for none

Not even one

But only for myself, to lay

On those bridal sheets

To be enfolded and be gently lulled

Into a tenderness, making

Molten eyes melt…
