Lay

After,
We rest.
We lay side
By side in bed
An embrace relaxed
Listening to the silence
Our breathing bodies touching
Enjoying the nearness of you
The odor of your hair neck
Skin your warmth close
We experience being
Together as the
Sounds filter
In to us as
We look
Into
Eyes tender
Then talk of this
Or that sharing the
Moment as time drifts
No hurry no rush
Only our pillow
Talk gliding
Us along,
We are
Content
For awhile
To lay at rest.
