"Twas Once Upon A Starry Night"
From The Poetry Collection Of Susan Jane Kahon
'Twas once upon a starry night
When dreams were new, and love was fresh
We lay upon the blanket of earth...
And the moon unveiled our willing flesh


I do not mind the rain, so much
For the sun will kiss me with the dawn
I just need you close by my side
To hold, to hope, and dream upon


The rapture of this boundless eve
Brought warm thoughts to my aching heart
Your love flew to me on opened wing
To never keep our souls apart


You warned me when you touched my lips
You leaned, and stirred, and kissed me
With sparks in your hair, and laughter too
I knew that you had missed me


You revealed your deepest wish to me
And your eyes told me, to come away...
To transcend to another place in time
Where we shall both , forever play..


'Twas once upon a starry night
And over us, the moon did pass
And all our love, shone silvery bright
As we lay scattered on the bed of grass


'Twas a night of scorching love...
'Twas a night of sated bliss....
Remembering the burning in your touch
Branding  my memory, with your kiss..
