We stopped here on our way back from the beautiful Pocono Mountains.  I have lived in New Jersey for over 50 years and I have never been here before.  The experience was exhilarating!!

Here’s a bit of info, in case you ever want to visit 🙂

High Point State Park – High Point, in Montague, Sussex County, New Jersey, in the Skylands Region, is the highest elevation in the state at 1,803 feet (550 m). It is southeast of Port Jervis, New York. High Point is the highest peak of the Kittatinny Mountains. Three states – New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania – can be seen from the top.

Flame of Desire ~ #RomanticTuesday

flame-1041851_960_720
My eyes are closed
And still I see you, blazing
The flame of desirous sin

I feel exposed
As the heat of your touch, grazing
Makes my body sing its impassioned hymn

You tease me
Until I surrender to you
And we are one with the night

You please me
With everything that you do
And I find I can no longer fight

Darkness Plays

Tags

Mountains made of clouds

Against azure colored skies

Night creeps in with silence

On the whisper of a sigh

Emerald earth shades to black

As the heavens hold the day

Sunlight fades away with time

As darkness comes to play
