The toughest part
of soft velvet nights
when stars multiply
the senses?
 
The awe burgeons
chest feels as if
it will explode and
cry forever in spicy joy
 
Can taste buds ever forgive
sweet yearning curls?
as one more baby arrives?
yet another fragile blossom unfurls?
 
Courageous love rears
and stands confident amongst the stars
