By light of distant suns we swam

All dappled in the silver light

Warm summer air, cool mountain lake

Delicious in the moonlit night

Through liquid onyx, placid calm,

mercury sheen all glistening bright,

on skin and hair, reflected love,

dressed in dark and silvery white

Nightswimming: naked velvet touch

of water warmed by summer’s might

trembling, dried by lunar breath

goosebump hug of pure delight

And later in love’s calming glow,

soul windows give us calming sight.

Wrapped in memory, lost in love

I breathe with you and hold you tight
