While He Slumbers

He sleeps……
……….I watch….
I like the way your breath
comes and goes.
Stillness that quiets……
my own breathing.
I like the feel…..
of my hand…….on your skin.
A smooth…….waterfall…..
of cascading feelings….just warms me.
Your lips move
as thoughts drift……in your head
I catch those words….
in my own mouth
to help your slumber deepen.
I saw your fingers lift….
one…by…one
as if stroking….your dreams.
There is a gentle…almost boyish innocence
I want to snuggle up to and hold gently to me.
While you sleep….I steal your smiles
and drink them down.
Every sigh that passes
your lips…..are boxed away with music.
Last night I feathered your cheeks with my lashes.
I took your hand and placed it on my heart….
so we could dream together.
Then
I slept
deeply
sharing
your smile….as mine.


While He Slumbers by 


(17 ) My fancy came out to play at lunch…sigh…

Sometimes imagination can be a comforting diversion. I love living and feel blessed to be able to experience life within each day that comes. Grateful I am and thirsty I will always be for more.

    LOL What a lunch!! You are indeed an uncurable romantic.

  • BIG sigh………yes I guess I am. Thankfully it will not kill me. I decided to stay away from the thy’s and thou’s and thee’s. It is so beautiful here today I ate outside and decided to just drift. That kinda day. Thank you JR.

    My fancy is that he was pretending to be asleep and was just drinking in the love, this would be an impossible feat for a living red blooded real man ofcourse. ::}}

  • AAAhhhh but there is the secret…..ssshhhhh! He does not exist but in my mind penguin. If only. I’ve yet to give him a face. Thank you for this encouraging visit. xoxoxoxo
