Waking
by Raven

Upon waking, a dream
          Face to face, object of
                    Continued desire, held
                              Breathless, eyeing her repose
Amazed, unable to silence
          Racing heart, blood pounding
                    Screaming need, woman scent
                              Flaring, nostrils thrilled
Silent, noting angles, planes,
          Valleys, dips and curves
                    Surveying, fleshed chart
                              Mapping, my anticipation
Hungry, mouth held close
          Inhaling, every breath
                    Exhaled, shared essence
                              Bonding reason and heart
Morpheus cradled Love,
          Slumber; as I drink you
                    Savoring, heady female-wine
                              Infuse my arid soul
Sleep-sealed dreamer
          Whisper, caressing I
                    Listen, while hesitating
                              To end your reveries
Somnolent, heavy-eyed
          Cat-like, lithesome stretch
                    Purring, winsome smile
                              Radiant, I greet your love.
