Poetry: Night's Dark Caress

As I lay here waiting in the open, lying in earth mothers arms

I see it, feel it, smell it, sense it coming to engulf me in its dark mystery

I spread my arms, my legs to feel it completely through out me

Darkness, electric with sparks upon the deep black

I am not afraid of the deep dark, not me, not here, or anywhere

I am at peace here, tranquil in the warm, whispering, teasing breeze

Alert to all that can be fully sensed, felt, heard fully
Comforted, safe, yet feeling fully alive right to my soul

As in the arms of a long time lover, gently, passionately loving

And like a great lover that fully satisfies, I try to hold darkness

Fully knowing it must leave for my lover, Light

Dark’s mystery will return to me always, to caress, to hold, always
