Around the campfire. . .

We woke bathed 
in dew and mist
under layered clouds 
penetrated 
by the crimson sky 
of a new day.

Come on my love 
put your boots on 
we will be riding 
from dawn to dust –

 In the stillness 
of the  mountain air 
the distinctive
crackle of dry wood
echoes between the trees.

As I turn to feed the fire 
sparks flicker and fly
when the morning
catch of the day
is set upon
the hot coals 
of carnal desire


 to be continued ...
