today's poem
Posted: Thu Mar 08, 2007 2:04 pm
the sun peeks over the horizon
spilling his light into my windows.
but it is the rustle of tree leaves that awakens me
faster than a double espresso.
my lover drifts in,
teasing me with her sweet kisses.
at first, just a sigh in my ear, and i close my eyes againÖ
but soon she demands, creeping under the warm blanket,
goosebumping my flesh.
her voice rises in a crescendo,
"ditch the 16, load the 12, hit the beach NOW!"
spilling his light into my windows.
but it is the rustle of tree leaves that awakens me
faster than a double espresso.
my lover drifts in,
teasing me with her sweet kisses.
at first, just a sigh in my ear, and i close my eyes againÖ
but soon she demands, creeping under the warm blanket,
goosebumping my flesh.
her voice rises in a crescendo,
"ditch the 16, load the 12, hit the beach NOW!"
