Morning coffee

Alta H Mabin

Layers of me, all 

around your body

our legs entwined

my breath in your neck

 

Stroke through me hair

Pull me closer,

 

Butterfly kisses

Strawberry whispers

and bourbon promises

all through the night

 

Morning coffee

wearing only your T-shirt

and freshly 

squeezed juice

 

These are the moments I treasure,

whether you remember them 

or not

These are my precious moments

 

When you loved me

before the complications of the day

took over what our hearts

and souls needed

        Alta, the only thing you missed are the wine tipped lips. Otherwise, a beautiful poem and declaration of love.
