Perfume

She sprinkles sweet lavender on my feet
The air is thick with her love
We dance giddy in the night
Cheeks aglow
Feet aching
We both smile at the moon
Giggle at the stars
All around us is the sweet chime
Tiny bells whispering in the wind
They lull us into a half sleep
Glorious and drowsy
Just on the edges of dreams
Sweet ones I hope
She whispers gently in my ear
The smell of her soft skin is intoxicating
A comfort
Hopes and wishes
Secrets and dreams
My feet are bare and purple
The scent surrounds us like a cloud
We float upon it
Drift slowly into sleep.
