Dinner was over and the dances had been danced.
Taking her hand he led her away and they closed the world behind them.
Removing her clothes he looked at her body, aware of her nervousness.
She lay on her back with a gentle smile and watched as he undressed.
His caresses were gentle, her kisses sweet, as he took his place by her side.
Her arms wrapped around him and her legs opened wide as he reached up for the light.
Oh, the smell of the woman as he searched with his tongue
For the spot where her feelings would start.
The arch of her back as he mounted her body.
The smell of her hair filled his head.
Next morning he passed her a coffee as she shifted in her chair.
He reached for her hand to hold it tight and let her know he was still there.
She looked back and smiled as she picked up her cup.
Her thoughts on the night just passed.
The wonderful, magical night just passed.
And the secret they had to share
