Bliss

Black tail wagging,
Beneath the Guatemalan Hammock,
Ace’s back rubbing against mine.

The afternoon sun shining on my face,
Eye lids glowing orange,
Gently rocking,

My heart as full and warm as the sun,
Peaking from behind the clouds,

Bare thighs pressed against each other,
Heads on opposite sides,
Legs tangled,

Her golden hair glistens,
Green eyes closed,
Thinking her own thoughts,

We both shift to share,
The out stretched hammock,
She gathers the summer air,

I am safe here,
under the heavens.
