Ties That Bind

Two women stand coiled so close, 

interwoven as one like a single ribbon.  

Each bound to the other in perfect

solidarity,

their love speaks like whispers in the wind.

Heads bent to each other in silent promise,

as eyes turn away from a camera’s lens.

Their arms draped with little effort,

while hands revel in a sweet caress.

Beautiful and naked, unblemished.   

I’m moved like a song to it’s climactic end, 

no longer a voyeur but an invited guest  

deeply transported by their stance.
