Whim and Fancy

A Poem by rubie

Whim and Fancy

 

I think it was your smile

That lit my heart

And made my insides vibrate


With anticipation and delight

Or it could have been

The way you like to be kissed

In quiet moments of surprise

Caught off guard

Standing at the stove

And let me run my hands

All over you, free to touch

Your face, neck and arms

At my whim and fancy

And wrap around you

Until the curve of our bodies

Melds into one another

Blurring the edges of

You and me into we

Maybe it was how beautiful

You are fresh from sleep

Stretching cat-like in bed

Curling into me

For comfort and warmth

Greeting the new day with

Hope and loving tenderness

It might have been any one

Of your myriad wonders

But yes…I think it was your smile

My pleasure Rubie
the smile wins...that is the sexiest part of another whom we love...

i like the scenario you painted with these words...you get us there...in fact, we blush a bit, feeling like voyeurs...

It begins and ends with a smile - all the little joys in a relationship that cause us to melt in love. This is such a beautiful write, Rubie. I could see you sneaking upon him at the stove and planting a kiss on his neck while wrapping your arms around his waist... I could even feel the release from that cat-like stretch... you, my dear, should be directing movies, or at least writing scripts :)
