On Your Pillow Poem by Stevie Taite

On Your Pillow

Rating: 5.0


On your pillow
Indent made
Shower running
There I laid
Sleepily
I stretched my limbs
And smiled as now
my act begins
I did feign
Unconsciousness
And breathed so deeply
As you dressed
I waited
as you fumbled blind
To see if you would
Still be kind
And gently plant
A morning kiss
Not try to wake me
From this bliss
(Soft wet touch
like dawns fresh mist)
Then pick your change
In pocket put
Down stairs you went
With gentle foot
And quietly
You turned the key
So careful not
To disturb me
You did this
As you always do
My darling husband
I love you!

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
I on the other hand, I am noisy cow! If I am awake he is too. Truly my better half! He did kiss me by the way as that was not so obvious so I added the bit about dawns early mist to say that he did. It needed that Val, thanks x I think it works to put across that I got my kiss? X

Wonderful - loved the read. You don't say in your poem if he gave you that kiss, but I am sure that he did.
