You ripen
in the sun
grown browner
become berrier
as the clasp
of your bra
becomes undone
and I the bearer
of the oil
anoint you
the anointed one
with sun
tan oil
in this ceremony
of love
where I
touched by your nakedness
place a kiss
between your shoulder blades
and lost
for words
cry out with
my heart
a wordless prayer:
“Oh love...oh love...
oh love! ”
