Venus

They wrestle in the blue pool
midnight moon in full glow
Mars casts his influence
while Venus dances in the dark

She shimmers, droplets scale her
drip like diamonds, illuminating,
sending chills, an SOS of sexuality
a treasure chest of temptation

He sips silver from Her lips,
traces facets, discovers depths
that tell of Her journey from earth's core
where She dwelt among dirt

Rough hewn, She found Herself
plucked, chipped away at by time
tested, dipped in the acid
of anquish, purged to purity

until Her essence became evident
He becomes captive to Her heart,
born from the universe's creation,
as they entwine for eternity
