On A Bed Of Moss

A meeting to remember

I pulled into the empty forsaken parking lot

Surrounded by beauty, bird songs and trees,

The harmony of nature forever calling to me

Singing ever so seductively on the breeze.

***

I entered the rainforest trail hesitantly

My stomach full of nervous butterflies,

My heart swollen and stuck in my throat

A bright smile on my face and in my eyes.

***

I meander slowly through the bush trails

Heading towards our secret meeting place,

As I get closer, I begin to speed up my steps

Desperate to cast my eyes on your face.

***

There you are waiting patiently for me

My last steps rushed as I dive into your arms,

I raise my face to look up at you with anticipation

For that first kiss as you hold me in your palms.

***

It was as sweet as I had imagined it to be

Full of all our feelings of pent up love and lust,

You suddenly break away from my lips to trail

Kisses on my neck almost causing me to combust.

***

You gently lay me down on a soft bed of moss

Asking a question with your eyes, hands still,

Then you slowly remove the barriers between us

The touching of our bare skin a magical thrill.

***

Your gentle touch explores me from head to toe

As you begin to make love to me ever so lovingly,

You’ve totally blown my mind, I’m incoherent

Every nerve alive as you touch me seductively.

***

I lay there in your arms, totally and fully sated

You fulfilled my every wish, my every desire,

I travelled up and over a glorious wave of pleasure

As your touch, your love, set my body on fire.

***

I gracefully stretch my body, cuddling in closer

I can still feel tiny shivers up and down my spine,

I gradually open my eyes and stare at the ceiling

Realising it was a dream, oh but a dream so divine.

About the Creator

Colleen Millsteed

My first love is poetry — it’s like a desperate need to write, to free up space in my mind, to escape the constant noise in my head. Most of the time the poems write themselves — I’m just the conduit holding the metaphorical pen.
