Bliss



Bliss

    Hearts entwined
        Love beats,
     Arms and legs
     Holding closely,
     Refracted light
       In crystals,
    Rainbows stray
    Prisms o'er skin,
    Softly carressed
     Breathy sighs,
   Sweet, sweet love
    In silvered waves,
       Lips kissing,
     One crystal tear               
            Of joy,
        Time frozen
     In one perfect
         Moment
   ...Until the next...
