a/n:  
Though not exceptionally graphic, 
this poem is an adult moment 
between a married couple.  
                              Skip it if you aren't CERTAIN 
you are ready for that!

                              and then, 
                              for a few,
                              fleeting moments, 
                              there is only us...
                              and here...
                              and now...
                              a few moments when time  
                              STOPS.
                              skips a beat.
                              skips a beat.
                              Empty mind...
Full heart...
Head on shoulder...
Breath on neck...
Arm on chest...
Contented smile...
                              Nothing but a thin sheet, 
and tiny gold shields 
on our intertwining left hands 
to protect us 
from the chilling world.
                              Your cute little 
humming mumbles 
of sleepy pleasure 
as I slowly run my hand 
through your damp hair.
                              Your whole body 
shivers tightly into itself, 
expelling a deep breath into my neck
when my fingertips 
glide behind your ear, 
though only once, 
for that wasn't my intent.
                              Remembering the sweet taste 
of lemonade on your lips,
and the salt 
of your skin.
                              The vanilla scent of your hair 
mingles 
with the earthy scent 
of perspiration 
and fresh cut grass.
                              As sleep gently drifts over us 
like the careless blanket 
of cottonwood fluff settling outside 
in the warm sunshine, 
                              peaceful, familiar questions
float gently around in my mind that
SCARE THE HELL OUT OF ME!
Are we really ready...
to become our parents...?
Can we give her all she deserves?
