   One Perfect Sigh

To breathe with you this moment
in delicious familiarity
is like waking on Sunday morning

A morning
when the sun is made of lace
that moves across the cotton sheet

and I feel each cell
languid and heavy
until I’m drowning
and must pour
all this home made goodness

into one perfect sigh.



 In the dew of little things,
the heart finds its morning
and is refreshed.
(ee cummings)
