You pad across <br />the white tile floor <br /> <br />almost animal <br /> <br />your beauty <br />something only you <br />could tame <br /> <br />I have to raise my arm against it <br />as you come out of the sun <br /> <br />wearing only my white silk shirt <br /> <br />blown gracefully <br />against your curves <br /> <br />the shirt billowing behind you <br /> <br />as if <br />you were an angel <br />with folded wings <br /> <br />each step <br />a thing of wonder <br /> <br />lost in thought <br /> <br />as if you had taken – a wrong turning <br />& seemed surprised to be <br /> <br />here <br />stranded <br /> <br />kissing this human <br /> <br />who seems to know <br /> <br />that loving <br />is the only Heaven.<br /><br />Dónall Dempsey<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/loving-is-the-only-heaven/
