Reminders Poem by Debi Gray

Electricity floods me as my eye catches on soft, cottony smooth hair, colored like sunkissed wheat.

An innocent face awaits me, blue eyes glimmering back at me like mist upon a flower at early dawn.

Hesitant hands run lightly across a sandpaper face, elation rising, breath hastening as the sensuos feel electrifies.

Porcelain lips beckon for sensation, lightly brushing mine, feather soft.

A body tall and lithe in frame, sheethed in quiet muscle lies calling, anticipating indulgance.

Gently, pale hands grasp mine, careful to entangle long, thin fingers between mine.

I lie in an elated state of wakefulness, conscious of only what lies behind and ahead.

I drift lightly into sleep, peace falling over me that lasts for only but a moment.

Silence engulfs the room, and then I lie quiet.
