" Cherie's Holiday Cheer "

From the view, her view, her silhouette
I sit beside her and glimpse
The presence
Of the red and white of her holiday cheer
Rubbing my back so softly
With the touch of her most gentle intent
And the lust in her eyes
Trying my patience, purposely, seductive
With the spell of Love's baptism
Promising
That which my soul has longed for
Gleaned from her nearness
And just the pure excitement of her touch
Leading straight into
The perfect evening
And pinnacle
of her
Possibilities.....
