The view from my pillow
of her,
occupies my eyes
as she sleeps,
nude, beside me.
Her cleavage lingers –
just there,
draped in blue silk sheets,
inviting me to lose my way
in her deep and comforting valley.

I am awake,
now
and roused,
growing,
impatient to begin –
something…

Some need
jangling alarms and coffee
for their morning rising!

All I need is this:
this expanding, settling, expanding
of her breathing,
inches from my lips,
watching-
waiting-
wanting.
