Currawong Love Song

On cool misty mornings

when we cuddle up deep in bed together

first thing in the morning

after the babies have said

good morning and

mummy mummy mummy and

squeebed over daddy and

rolled into the middle and

prised us apart and

sat on our heads and

layed with their heads on me while

pushing you away with their legs and

looked at the bush turkeys outside and

taken off their nappies and then

gone into the adventure of the rest of the house and

maybe one or two has gone away and come back and

cuddled in at the side and

I’ve probably already got up to do

various other

very very early morning things

But

I get to snuggle back into

the warm nest of our bed

next to you

the hard soles

of your feet rest

on the tops of mine and

my toes and

my knees are pressed into the back of yours and

your beautiful curved bum

gently pushed into my lap and

my breasts nestled into

your smooth skinned

brownly muscled back

with that huge red mole

right over the back of your heart and

my arm drapes around

your soft hard hairy chest and

my hand curls

around your shoulder

It feels so completely full

And perfect.

And like I’d never want to move again

if I didn’t have to

 Curled so beautifully

warming each other with our skin

your velvet skin

singeing a band of heat across my flesh

your smell that fills me

with all sorts of archetypal yearnings and wantings

your hair tickling my nose

wrapped in each other and our bednest

with our tangled limbs holding hard

My mind wanders as it usually does

and because I’m so full of love for you

it wanders all around you

how I love all of you

every bit of you

The grumpy stroppy acidic snark and

the fights we have and

the gentle days and

your spontaneous joker and

irrepressible romantic and

the times when you feel like my ancient teacher and

those when you feel like my biggest child

The adventures we’ve been on

the sights we’ve seen and

the depths that we’ve delved in each other

The babies we’ve made and

the births that they’ve had and

I love the reality of you and

the hard muscle of you and

the sun warmed skin of you and

every single thing of you

I love my loyalty and jealousy

how much I feel like I want to

hide you away

in a treasure box

with all your love just for me

 I love the profound moments

that we both have etched

on our souls in shared memories

I love the perfection of all our imperfections

I love your carnal lust and its echo in me and

I love how our search into that lust

no matter how many dark roads it may have taken us

always leads us to each other

Our search into sex

and desire and carnality

has taken us to that place

that many seekers search for……..

The world where you can let go

of your earthly thoughts and

worries and

ego and

just

be

pure

lust

Exist only in the moment

forget how we look

be

love and

wonderment

lost in the eternal now.

In fact

I love every detail so much

that I try to find us an eternity

cause it’s hard to feel so much love

without the knowing that one day it will end

one of us will die

and then the other

surely with this much love

wrapped up in our souls

it cannot die?

surely even after all the

universes and

suns and solar systems

have fit into our consciousnesses

we will still see each other and melt?

I go through all the things

I know about the world and

myself and

each other and

all the places I believe

we’ll all go when we die………

And I know that we’ll still love each other

Everytime I start to feel afraid

of death

or of loss

or of an unexpected and horrible thing happening

or of the future

I try to quick remember

that it’s all me

Everything is me

It always has been

Would I ever be really cruel to myself?

would I ever really hurt me?

without giving the balm with the pain?

and a reason for the cure?

And then I always relax

cause I know me and

 I’m pretty groovy

 I know

that wherever we may end up and

however we run into our next journey

beyond this one and

no matter in what form and

no matter what universes we have sitting within……..

That there will always be you and me and

this epic love between us and

that is all

there really is

Love

Eternal
