A Bowl of Fruit

I left a bowl of fruit
on the table in the kitchen
for you to eat and thus kindle desire
in your body and soul
because I thought we might lie together
on the bed beneath the full moon
streaming through the open window
so that whispers of wind
may confirm the sweetness of love
and move your long black hair
across the smooth white sheet.
