This is the Nocturne

I have written few poems of late.
Falling Rocks was the latest and this came awhile before.
Both are for my Lady.

This is the nocturne, the kiss good night,
the snuggle, the sigh,
the whisper, Gracias mi diosa,
this is the nuzzle against the still damp neck,
the caress along the flank
caress of hip,
this is the wiggle off the wet spot.
the whisper, Gracias mi diosa
this is the endless inhalation,
a woman's scent, this is a waning moon,
the breast within the palm,
a hand held hand
This is the whisper,
Tighter.
This is the nocturne, the kiss good night,
the sigh, the scent of hair
the tangled hair.
This is the tangle and
the tangle of the legs and
the hand that slips behind the back,
below the hips,
the gentle squeeze
this is the inhalation,
this is the giggle,
this is the I love you
said twice at once and said again.
this is the whispered thank you
this is the sheet pulled shoulder high
the almost unheard murmur
this is a whispered kiss along the spine,
a kiss, a bite to the hand held hand
and the breast again against the palm
the sigh, the inhalation.
This is the nocturne, the kiss good night.
