Reconnecting (on a Saturday Afternoon)

Folder: 
Letters to Petula

Kissing on the couch
On a Saturday afternoon
Tenderly, with a teen's thumping heart

 

Your eyes steal the breath from my body
And when you touch my cheek,
Your fingertips spell it out -

 

Only here -
Do the sweetest looks disguise:

Two forty-somethings and
Nine years already spent together.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

For my beautiful wife, Petula.
