Just another aspect of "42".

(Douglas Adams fans will better understand.)



I Found Myself Reborn

She led me by the hand
Through a green forest.
Twisting around the trunks,
Ducking beneath low branches.
I followed blindly in love
With the feel of her hand
And the utter sweetness
Of her breath on my cheek,
And her – encompassment.
She stopped in a clearing
But a few yards across,
Pulled herself against my hand
Until her lips covered mine
And her breast impressed
Pertly on my nakedness.
Our kiss was unending
And filled me with fire,
With secret understanding,
And a lust for life itself.
She breathed into my body
Something greater than air.
We held each others hands
As our twinned lips parted,
And I? I breathed out lust.



She mouthed silent words,
Smiled an angelic smile,
Unfurled her gorgeous wings,
And in a column of white
Rose toward the open sky –
Hands and arms outstretched
As if she had just placed
Me in this wooded scene.



The trees and I once more alone –
Free to navigate a way
Though the multitude of leaves
And questionable maneuvers.

I watched her elevation
‘Till she was a star, afar,
As night had brushed dark
Colours over her euphoric clouds.

I found myself reborn.

This has a dream quality to it that is very, very appealing. Your descriptions detail the scene so fully, my mind built a lovely world that seemed to come alive like a moving picture. I particularly like how this woman (or feminine entity) has these strong effects on him, like he's been touched by an angel. A sort of revitalizing moment, filled with sensations and emotions, but the kind that are life-changing in a good way. A lot of good lines in this, I'd quote all of them ;) Very beautiful, it had a calming atmosphere to it that I enjoyed very much, thanks.
