we finally met up again,

introductions necessary

though we've spent hundreds

of days beneath the same roof,

good to see you's all over

our faces, unspoken words

in our embraces,

cheek to cheek soft rub

of tender skin against skin

and the scent of you

filling my nostrils,

reviving memories of

days and nights

of unrestrained passion,

moments engraved

in the fabric of our sheets,

the pillows on our sofa,

the plushness of the carpet,

the tile on the kitchen floor,

against the woodgrain of the door,

repititious pleasure painting

every wall in scenes of ecstasy,

a gallery dedicated to you and me,

what makes a house a home,

love and all its majesty,

everything you bring and sing

in rhythms uniting us into this life,

into this place where we meet,

face to face everyday,

good morning my life mate,

it's good to see you again.
