The scent of sleep
is forbidden tonight
as the soft rain
tempts Love
to enter this chamber
only to crawl
cold and wet
from the dark
into these fall sheets--
curl warm and needy
into the backs of knees,
belly heat against this strong back
arms and hands tucked just so.
Breathe shallow
and know how good it is
to be awake.
