He Dries Her Off


She steps from the bath,
water
running in rivulets
down
her fragrant body,
invading secret places,
then quietly
dripping
onto the
drenched mat.

He comes to dry her off,
starting by wrapping a towel
around her hair
and then taking another
as he tenderly
kisses her,
pulling her wetness
against him.

He gently
pats her back,
moving ever downward
against
supple rises and curves
as he dries
all
of the places
that have
collected moisture.

Then on his knees,
he dries each leg,
starting
at the thighs
and finishes
with her feet.

Marge,
I'm so glad you got to read this one. As you can see, it's a bit different from my usual writing. It's more sensual. Hey, do me a favor and drop the "A" on Michael A. We've known each other for so long now that the "A" isn't needed, don't you think? :-) I am glad you liked this one, my friend and appreciate you stopping by for a read. Thank you.

Very nice

Yes, the towel was also warm. :-) Thanks

Moon Dust,
Thanks for the "very nice" and for reading.

Dee,
I was hoping the love showed through as much as the sensual quality. Thanks for noticing it and for the nice words, my friend. ((((hugs))))

Such a tender sensual moment. Why don't men do this more??????

Loved it, Auguste. Beautiful gentle flow.

Very sensuous and romantic writing, Auguste. A beautiful moment indeed.

All I can say is this is the most sensual poem I've read in ages.
