In The Sunlight

A collaboration with the Amazing MsJewel

The fields were ripe, the strawberries sweet

on vines intertwined, glistening from the dew

through summers warm golden flecks

silken new grass sprung forth from meadows green



We stood a moment in the sunlight

a moment uncounted by time

to sigh…

to swoon…



With nary the touch of your hand in mine

the leaves rustled

long branches bending to the wind

your tender lips beckoned



The scene summoned emotions unfamiliar…



Is it not sweeter than a foolish kiss

or to bear your bodies weight upon my breast?



With a fragrant perfume adrift on the breeze

the sensation of you…next to me…

breathtaking



Yes, for a moment

summer held us

… in the sunlight

Author's Note

This was a fun collaboration with Julie. She challenges me with her poetry.
