Celestial Bodies Poem by M. A Heathcote

Star aniseed, taste buds gradually numbed
With the meaning of life, aching from within
Ah, for that celestial warmth of her touch-of-her-skin.
Velvet, as a rosebud, like a bee, succumbed.
Nights spent beholding them: till fast asleep
Each cluster learnt and begins to reteach:
Star's geographically, they're too far to reach.
But I've got two orbiting - they're mine to keep.
I gaze at their heavens long into the night.
Loves - honey - once it rolls off the tongue
Root sticks in your heart like a boomerang.
Starlight blinds, but it mellows to moonlight.
& as it does, I am always transfixed,
Heart & soul with body fluids intermixed.
