She nags me like a little child
Her eyelids struggle to reach a decision
They slowly droop down unable to resist
She mumbles something, half asleep
“…love you Chucha!” the words seem to say
And off she goes into the land of dreams
I sit there unable to take my eyes off her
“O Lord, doesn’t she look absolutely gorgeous?”
Her angelic face looking ever so innocent
Her soft lips parting just a little bit
She stirs, her eyes still shut, adjusting her posture
A tuft of her silky hair falls over her round cheeks
And I fight the urge to move them aside
Lest I be the one to wake her up
Before she completes her beautiful dream
“Might I be in it?” I grin in wonder
Let me have this moment to take it all in
For when shall I again get to see her…
...slumber away in such peaceful grace
I want to freeze her picture in my mind
Her rhythmic breathing and her face so kind
Let me just be, with my beloved sweetheart
‘Cause I am falling for her even more
For she is my most amazing Sleeping Beauty!
Beautifully written as you always do.
ReplyDeleteThank you Pem Dem. Well, I don't write beautifully actually, it's just that my subject, my beloved darling Dolma, is too beautiful and makes everything written about her appear good.
