Rings
  JERRY BROWNING  

 NAKED DREAMS   

 

Rings
 

she purrs in silent slumber
moonlit hair flowing
like some ancient, sacred river

velvety rising and falling
of belly and breasts
form tiny, magic rings of love
floating to the rafters
filling the room
the house…the space
in my heart’s darkest chamber

as i slide ‘neath the sheets
kiss her soft perfumed cheek
tears well my wondering eyes…
how could god wrap such beauty
in so frail a package

Spring, Texas ‘90
