He slowly wakes her,
quiet, and the only one
as love’s color lays upon velvet petals, he hums.
His hands feel her beautiful,
remarkable, softly serene. His murmur, awakening her scent at dawn, leads her blossoming.
Helios, Titan god of her sun, stretches and whispers she is exquisite, mine and for now, done.

Exquisitely done, the imagery was wonderful. The slow motion in this poem really captures my imagination. And the ending is so…pure. Loved how you used the Greek god of Sun. Well done!
Would love it if you reviewed my poem:
