Poem for the week…

As I Look Up by Dominic Sasse

Once more reality I must leave, to dream.
To let Time forgive my faults and not forget,
as I have not, the sugared moments spent.
From my dreams I shall rise, unsnared,
as I look up, there you shall be,
by memory enshrined exactly.

Together we shall taste the enchanted past,
Like anointed lovers entwined,
we shall tread that merry avenue of beeches,
their tinsel to shimmer and sway.

Once passed the mansion gates I would bend,
to press my eager face into your neck,
where the secret flesh is furred like peaches,
behind a curtain of caramel scented curls.

Without asking I would pull you down,
with my devoted hands to express,
my fluent tongue to endear.
We would smear our mouths with ardent kisses
and cry aloud from loving as we lay,
beneath the arches of a careless wanton day.
