This is a poem I wrote about what intimacy means to me in my marriage. It’s called “Planet One”
You and
I
are no longer two planets
but
One.
We used to periodically pass by one another
flashing aural lights.
We revolved around
each other until we passed
Through a meter shower of
stars that led us into a
Black hole where our rings
became entangled and
our oceans and atmospheric
gases repressurized.
By the time we spun out of the celestial dust clouds, we rotated
as one.
We tilted as one planet spinning in unison
and orbiting God’s Son–
The center of our galaxy.
We spin as one.
Planet One

I like your poetry and the word picture it creates. Thanks for writing and sharing it. I hope you gave it to your husband in some special way…paper rolled in a ribbon and tucked into a bottle or something romantic : )

Thank you Gail! I did share it with him and he was very touched by it. That is a very sweet idea you suggested. I will do that–tie it up with a ribbon. Thank you and may God bless you 🙂
