Dream doused eyes follow half-moons
traced along surface of birthed day,
indulging intimacies in togetherness…
While yet reclined, she watched him
as passion ebbed into smoother
flow, pooling in her more deeply
Methodically he scraped yesterdays'
rough shadow from cheeks yet warmed
by mornings first shared laughter
Invoking magic between them
sufficient to reduce bone to jelly,
that thought spread jarring heat~
now hugging his pillow even closer,
she smiled burrowing into essence
which still clung tightly to linen.
