We had candles lit and soft,
soft music lingering on their glow.
'Bop-diddlely-beep-shoop-ba-day-ba-day'
Then you whispered something in my ear...
I don't know what the heck you were saying ...
but the warmth  of your words sent a chill
to the essence of my love...
here..and there...
The smoothe sax of Coltrane...
with frankencense and oils
calmed the ripples in our spirits..
and we read together, relaxed together, showered 
together...explored one another ...
And somewhere within the joy you...there was peace.
