Waiting Patiently
It’s my favorite time of day.
Imagining the warmth
from your eyes
as daylight fades to dusk,
embracing the soft breeze
that teases through the trees
It’s my favorite time of day.
And the colors you are wearing,
I can’t help but wonder,
as you sail your way to me.
It’s my favorite time of day.
I anticipate your touch,
delicious lips,
not yet close enough to kiss.
It’s my favorite time of day.
Just knowing
you trust
I am here
waiting patiently.
The Picnic
Our blanket is spread in just the right place,
as the sunlight through the leaves
dances gleefully on your face.
The season’s change is coming,
but not on this uncertain day.
A slight chill is in the breeze,
it only hastens our love’s play.
The wine and cheese patiently await their fate,
as we explore the possibilities
and just how well we both relate.
Consumed with each other,
we don’t need a referee.
And we constantly affirm
just how fit “the fit” can be!
As expected and desired
we linger lovingly with each caress,
as we will with this memory
that forever we’ll possess.
Our Perfect Blue Sky Day
all that matters
holding
one another
close
content
snuggling
struggling
in any weather
anyhow
anyway
still
will
always be
our perfect
blue sky day
