Silhouetted Lovers
The cool breeze filtered through the camper window that night
Caused the curtains to dance in the moon light
Shadows painted upon camper wall
Nature’s canvas because of night fall
The night had robbed the light of day
The thief of light was here to stay
Nature’s call was in full display
As night time hours ticked away
Upon the table the empty Merlot bottle of wine rests
The crystal glasses now empty seemed half dressed
The buzz of locust drowned the scene
Nature’s sounds were there but they didn’t intervene
Clothes were scattered about the floor
Painted to match the night’s decor
The naked lore of man and woman were in full display
Silhouetted love of two souls were underway
Pulsing love of man’s heaving chest
Moon light love was being expressed
Woman’s naked desire caused the man to transpire
Buzz of locusts became nature’s choir
To this night’s love affair
The last heave of manly desires
Meets the needs of two as time seems to aspire
All is quiet now from nature’s choir
As man and woman lay in silhouetted attire ©2008

this is a lovely piece of two lovers and the intimacy they share…your rhyming is well wrought, with its word painting well defined…the only thing I would do differently is break up this one large paragraph into smaller stanzas…it makes for easier reading…
keep on writing my friend; you are doing a fine job!

@stevieheart - oh you are so welcome my friend; yes, I bet it was…isn’t writing the best thing?
