Make Love

Take a bunch of longing looks
now blanche in
honeyed time.

Blend with a
little laughter
and a cup of
moonlit wine.

Add a pinch
of mystery
with a tender
loving touch.

Crumble in
some kisses
and a tablespoon
of lust.

Gently simmer
it in music,
slowly stir with
a loving dance.

Whisk in a
million heartbeats
and serve up a
sweet romance.
