My fingers gently glide
round her body's many curves
then slowly journey
up with no real purpose
other than the joy of touching on
a thing touched, untouched before.
With a lingering backhand I brush
just past her lightly
freckled cheek before taking
a more calloused pass past
the satin warmth of those two
recently kissed and oh so inviting
slightly parted rosy lips.
Upwards my hand ventures
but soon ceases its wandering.
It's then one inquisitive nail bitten forefinger
hesitantly comes forward, points at her temple
as one more prone to wonder
less about the surface of a thing than
the wisdom within.
