wet with loose dripping hair,
you sat on the rocky shore
with flowing skirt rolled and curled
ambitious around your feet
the wild wind played on your naked breasts
and I said to you
"I am here"
startled from your soul you cried,
"why have you come?"
"to offer you my love" I said
you came with me smiling
we dressed a basket of flowers
we sat together
we danced in the sun
you were a goddess
and I was your lover
when over the mountains appeared the evening star
you sat alone
blue silk girdled your waist
around your wrists bracelets of gold
I played my music
and you said
"why have you come?"
"I have come to dress you with my love"
I placed a necklace of golden crescents
around your breasts
I caressed your hair with my lips
the jewels on your body sparkled
you intoxicated and disturbed the spring night
anklets jangled as you danced
to the beat of my heart
as Shiva, Shakti, we danced,
and we danced
through light and shade
in the waters, in the sea of love
in the twilight
into the night we danced
as Shiva and Shakti
played the game of love
again....
