Wonder
Deep June,
the pale
listless
moon looks on
as we sweat
below her.
I say I’d like
to see the whole
earth. You
only laugh
as if I didn’t
mean it.
You kiss
me, so I
don’t bother
to repeat it.
Instead,
I just lie
here,
looking up,
wondering at it all.

I like the phrase “Deep June” and the way this builds to a beautiful end!
pale, listless moon. lovely.
“Wonder” is wonderful
put me in the scene, evokes the moment
I was there with you all along.
Nice 🙂
Wow, now that is romantic and agree with the specific images other commenters stated too. The diction surrounding the moon and the feeling of being caught in that tender moment were very enjoyable.
