Reddish brown satin Sliding round her long body Like silk stockings on a shapely leg Shining and intelligent, deep brown eyes Soften when she’s resting in the sunshine A slight curve to her lips seem to smile content Seated primly beside me Calmly confident, waiting for the expected share of tasty treat and if I delay bright, steady gaze imprisons mine full of assured expectation a silent, regal demand and I comply, smiling while sliding my hand down the length of her silky back her warmth warming my spirit with hers were but she immortal and I never alone again like today with only poignant memories |
