What I See First

I am not yet awake as I right this. The words wanted out too much to wait for coffee.

What I see first is beauty:
Pillows have arranged her hair.
Sleep shadows her eyes.
Desire paints her lips.
Her breasts rise with each soft breath.
 
What I always see is love.

OMG! It already makes me so happy to see how happy you make my friend and then I follow a random link from her blog and these beautiful words spring onto my screen. So dreamy. I wish you thousands more happy awakenings, Lee and Suna.

Thank you, Stephanie. She makes me happy. I just try to reflect some of that back to her.
