An Ode

An Ode

A Poem by Annette Jay Sweeney
"

Falling into the sheets.

"
I enter the room after a long day, look over,

and see you waiting there every diligently.

You motion me over, playfully promising

to make me forget it all. I may have messy hair,

I may have changed into a baggy t-shirt

for the night, but you always take me as

I am.

 

I climb on top of you, pulling the sheets up

past my shoulders. My eyes shut as your

gentle caress relieves my tension, soothes

my mind, and readies me for my wildest

dreams. My legs curl, toes point, and I release

myself to your pleasures.

 

Bed, I adore you, for you of all

give me what I need without question.

OMG that is quite good... never heard a bed described in such a manner... even if it was fantasy we all need that sometimes to keep reality from driving us insane. very enjoyable read.
