You laid me down under newborn green,

While the lake faintly licked at my feet.

You blew scented Spring air in my face

And made our honeyed bodies meet.

And in the shadowplay of the leafs,

I saw sun-spotted dark green eyes.

You ravenously inhaled my yearning scent

As I explored your fur-clad thighs.

Then you covered me with musk-breathing kisses

My life was yours, your blood was mine.

We were solemn, serious and dark.

We pleasured, laughed, and were divine.

My eyes were opened, awakened my dreams,

As we lay on your ancient forest floor.

The green blood rose within the trees,

As we made Spring once more.
