Leaning against the door, she studies him.
She walks around, soft; coffee cup in hand,
Taking silent sips, tongue tracing the rim
Up for an hour; he lies in sleep land
Broadly smiling, cup down, decision made:
Gently easing onto the bed, sitting,
Reaching over, nudging, playfulness paid
He wakes and grins; bodies entwine, fitting.
But, what if the need to cuddle exceeds
The want of contact, company and touch?
What is pull, and what is push; what misleads
If he misunderstands; What is too much?
“Good morning” he says, hugging her so tight
Waking him, early thus, ends up all right.
Love this piece, Stu! It expresses some of my feelings in the mornings with my partner too! =) I especially love the image of your character walking around “soft.” =)
Thank you Sam. I like mornings like this.
Nice–This is both sweet and cute. I like it.
Glad you did Judith. I was going for the sweet and cute, and a bit more.
