Fortunate Few

by Melissa Arel



The warmth of your body radiates next to me;
The scent of you is an intoxication to my senses,
The indentation of your limbs is still fresh
On the sheets from where you lay.

Your voice whispers in my ear, sweet and unassuming
The grazing of your fingers sends rolling shivers over my skin,
A smile spreads across your face in amusement
As our laugh tumbles into the pillows.

You are poetry to my soul and a salve to my spirit,
One of the fortunate few are we
To have found love and to love one another.
