Night of Fire – his hunger

He marveled at the sight
and feeling of her skin
before getting on his knees
and tasting deeply of her sin.

He drank deep of her desire
and lapped the liquid of her lips;
he felt her clawing at his shoulders
and the shaking of her hips.

He moved them slowly to the bed
while he stoked her fire
and removed the last of their clothes
before she sheathed his desire.
