We met when
You were but
A prince I
Taught you honor
Trust chivalry horses
Compassion armor and
Armaments protection love
And soon when
I’m gone it
Will be your
Turn to be
Like a king
We met when
You were but
A prince I
Taught you honor
Trust chivalry horses
Compassion armor and
Armaments protection love
And soon when
I’m gone it
Will be your
Turn to be
Like a king
Beside me you
Lay covered in
White your chocolate
Skin peeking from
Behind like a
Bookmark one shoulder
Showing begging for
Early morning affection
Face turned away
Now turns towards
And lips open
And moisten as
I watch and
Lean in when
At once your
Arms encircle me
Pulling in close
And whispering your
Gaze is a
Traitor to sleep
And you shall
Pay your fine
By kissing me
Look at me
Wink at me
And kiss me
Hold my hand
Tug my beard
Tousle my hair
Touch my thigh
All are pleasant
Make me laugh
And I will
Love you forever
This favorite time
As day yawns
Smiling grapefruit red
Apricot and sunflower
Bleeding into tidepool
Blue midnight black
Mockingbirds mocking and
Grouse flying startled
Everything awakens slowly
From its slumber
Stretching like languid
Windowsill warmed cats
Even I bat
Sleep from eyes
And sip slowly
My steaming coffee
Until like dawn
It cools into
This new morning
Looking at you
Across a crowded
Room seems like
I’m waiting for
The train we
Are watching you
Laugh with others
And peek at
Me above the
Rim of your
Drink and wink
Apart from you
Is yes difficult
Sharing you with
Others however is
But sheer bliss
Be with them
Now then with
Me later on
I wink back
