Sense Sonnet - Acher

 Parting Aubade

Sweet love, in light of morning dawn,

Time has come for me to depart.

But I linger to gaze upon

Your sleeping face that fills my heart

With all the passion that we shared

Over the hours of last night.

Cupid ordained that we be paired,

As our limbs entangled tight

In fulfillment of ecstasy

Brought about in climactic bliss.

Coming together, you and me,

I say farewell with one last kiss.

Time 'twixt and 'tween I will count down

Till next your husband's out of town.
