Night
crawling into our bed
my feet cold as ice
giggles under covers
bodies curve like spoons
cats fold behind our knees
breath finding rhythm
tempo of peace
I sleep
——————————————————————-
I wake
alarm jangles
calling you - not me
greedy limbs fill warm space
your scent on the pillow
but the blankets, all mine
sweet good-bye kisses
lull me back to sleep
Day
