Your soft snore awakens me… along with a call of nature signaling
Me to get rid of the beers we had with pizza last night.
I pad quietly back from the john to the bed and I stop… just standing
There for a minute… to look at you…and appreciate.
Hell, I don’t know how else to describe what I’m doing… you are
So beautiful as you sleep.
The breeze from the open window barely moves one of the curls just
Above your ear. I watch it pick up the moonlight’s caress… that simple thin
Silver strand performing a gossamer dance.
I take the few remaining steps to the bed and I softly whisper, “I look
At you a lot while you sleep, babe, and you are unaware, the only way I can
Get away with it.”
…But I have to wonder… are you really that beautiful or is
It that I just love you so much the feeling fills the room.

Beautiful!
I love this!
Thank you!
Ah, a quick punch to the heart. 😉 So sweet.

Beautiful, Lucy!! So much love and emotion packed in here.

Oh man, that was beautiful! Thank you, Lucy!
Yes, beauty is in the eye of the beholder! I love that you have Starsky thinking about the nature of beauty. He and Hutch are both beautiful, but especially because they love each other and care for their community.
Absolutely beautiful. I could feel Starsky’s love in every word. Thank you for sharing this lovely poem
