One
idle evening
you looked into my eyes
and it began to rain.
The foliage glistened
while I danced alone
under an azure sky
and your arresting gaze.
Soon enough you joined me
-I don’t recall when -
we moved in hazy circles
in a downpour of desire.
In a while I’d noticed it -
a pearl clung to your ear
and you smiled your effervescent smile
as I stole it with my lips.
