Like A Glowing Angel (Free Verse Sonnet) Poem by Gert Strydom

(in answer to Louis Janse Van Vuuren)

Out of the bath you walked into my arms,
we had an intimate conversation,
you were wet with your hot skin against my skin
and the world lay open before us both.
Like a glowing angel I do remember you,
how you embraced me with your hot arms,
I felt your sweet breath against my face,
you embraced me as if wings were folding over me.
You took me by the hand
and still you were so very close to me
as if we were going back to paradise
and the mysticism of it I cannot comprehend,
where lips did find each other's in great passion
as if the fire that we lit wanted to devour us.
