we wait till night to come together and welcome dark
quick breaths of anticipation
heart drums sing and palpitations
beat tattoos and rhythm nations
dreams envision hot relations
impatience
dripping lust
between full lips tongues meet
hand and body conversation
brown beginning love creation
Mother of Eternity and Father of the Race
face to face and hand in hand
mingled perspiration
back against the wall legs open invitation
we commence our consummation
waves of body ebb and flow in perfect sync
climax welcome celebration
erupt passion liberation
high on lovers pulse elation
in the arms of home our bodies stiffen
embrace of nature’s adoration
hold each other
end of physical demonstration
eyes meet now for confirmation
within this gaze is the history of civilization
the birth of love
