a falling leaf...

The other night, when you teased me and went to bed,
Did you really think I'd prefer my TV show,
And not trail you to where your pettish footsteps led? –
Oh no, from the bedroom doorway I watched you go,
And settle yourself like a leaf upon the sheets;
One moment, eyes to the light, the next gliding down,
For every inch your body a graceful arc meets
When your head finally makes my pillow your crown.
But, it was the smile that you turned on me right then,
With its admixture of love, and tender passion,
That told me our best lovemaking would soon begin,
So I stepped to you in calm exhilaration.
I too felt like I was a falling leaf,
Settling on your body in disbelief.
