awaken(ing) by Rachelle Howe
"good morning..."
sunlight, waiting to be reborn,
peeks through, not yet released, but eager
in its anticipation.
there we lay, clad in white silk,
limbs entangled.
fingertips hasten my awakening,
the touch softer than the evenings dew.
"good morning..."
she greets me, her random
paintings and patterns upon my skin
still in full swing.
"good morning..."
with these words, i rose,
and indeed,
it was.
