Two Lovers

 

                                  Two Lovers

 

Astute hostess sat them side by side, table of eight,

ensuring exciting experience, their first date,

intimate small talk, chatting, a surreal scene

discuss travel, nature, sex to obliquely obscene.

 

Guests’ loud laughter, abound a surround,

potential lovers discreet, venture out, barely a sound,

on patio absorb bay views, relax in evening breeze

hands, breasts, bodies, brush, neither at ease.

 

Mystical vision of nature’s beauty, not to be decried

charmed, captivated emotions spiral, magnified,

under perfect symmetrical scarlet lunar moon embrace,

before colour changes to golden, disappearing into space.

 

No human could create such an awesome sight

Encapsulating our two lovers, day thru night.
