Firelight Tableau
by laudon
© March, 2000

A fire burns in the hearth of a stone fireplace. The flames pick up the grain of of the wood-panelled walls, turning them a warm honey color. Snow falls heavily in the deep velvet night outside the leaded glass windows. A long over-stuffed couch in deep brown leather faces the fireplace. Two delicately-stemmed crystal glasses sit on the butler's table before the couch, the firelight mellowing the color of the contents to a contents to a rich garnet. The Adagio of Mozart's clarinet concerto plays, it's music seeming to rise and fall and flicker with the firelight.

On a deep rug before the crackling fire, two forms entwine, one atop the other, their naked skin alabaster in the glow of the hearth. The figure on top pauses in his trail of kisses down the chiseled chest of the man below.  The curls in the hair of raised head shine like liquid gold, as sapphire eyes gaze down upon the face of the one below: the full lips slightly parted, the gleam of twin points of ivory just showing, eyes closed in rapture.
