The Dance of Love 
your kiss the caress of honey
melting my hard edges
your gaze the touch of angels
soothing my soul
~
your presence lingers
shining in my heart
radiant as a full moon
circling and entwined
~
in a sacred dance
bodies as holy temple
we worship the divine
burning the dross of mind
~
flames of desire ignite
purifying with love
our bodies joined in prayer
singing the praises of Allah
~
peace blessed peace
dissolving the need for words
our souls reunited
in the timeless dance of love
writing to freedom 
Whoosh……..took my breath away……What a blissfully gorgeous poetic masterpiece!!

🙂 I haven’t been on word press in a month or more..I had to take a social media purge of sorts…although I have been on facebook now and then and have seen some of your posts there.
So glad you’ve found your sweet spot, my dear friend. Love it!
