I miss the spooning in bed.
The way you back into me and nestle, so snug.
I sense each movement with the heat it brings.
It's your caresses, your fingers.
Weaving without thought.
I miss this comfort.
I miss the tickle of your new beard at daybreak.
I miss nesting in the cradle of your neck.
Gone... the softness of flesh.
The moan of a slow dance.
I miss the way you slide next to me on Sunday.
The cadence of showers that build with our passions.
I need the smile you hide on the other side of the newspaper.
I want to reach for your palm and study it.
Remember the finger to my lips?
A sketch of your lifeline with my moistness?
I miss the cool trespass of air as you gently raise the sheets.
Your approach as your shadow cover me in sleep and ...
Your tip-toe upon my flesh.
I miss it all.
YOUR WHOLE SERIES OF ROMANCE POEMS, OF LATE, HAVE BEEN PURE AFFECTATION FOR US ALL. To be able to write in such a manner that the affect on the reader is to feel the feelings and experience the emotions, is a gift indeed. Art
For those of us who remember, this is pure honey. And, for those who have not yet found such aliveness in memories, we wish for them that it will happen soon and often.
Susan, you've given us a special look-see into reborn passion. We are the winners, of course. - Bill
Yes i agree with Jerry completely, to miss so much and retain such tender and dear memories means that you had somthing rare and special which a lot of people never get to expereience. Well done Sue.
