Shadowed in the mist of the morning lake,
jacket hugged tight against the cold,
tremors of anticipation making her body ache,
wondering what events will unfold.

Meeting only in her nightly dreams,
explicit desires, humble wants and needs,
raising expectations to the highest extreme,
of sowing tender emotional seeds.

The moment has come when he appears
avidity shines through the warmth of his smile
embraced in his shadow as he neared
all her fears vanished like smoke in the air

Taking her hand saying not a word
butterfly ballerinas swirled without care
a magical moment soon occurred
kiss of passion fuels the future they'll share
