Designs for loving

When the rain comes
I fall back again
To walls of sunny knotty pine
Heavy bed covers pulled up to chins
Candle flame dancing a shadow show
Cradled, you lie in my arms
A safe harbor from this storm
The black night made more so in the rain
Dreamy in and out of semi-sleep
Whispers drift on candle-lit moves
While under the cover of darkness
The storm voice of thunder competes for dominance
In the background of passionate love-making
Silhouetted on walls of knotty pine
Comes the body-music of lovers in the rain
