I Wake Up Early

I wake up early to dream of you with eyes open,

to fill up my senses with the scent of your hair

& the touch of your body sleeping next to mine;

to delight in the sound of your soft breathing

& dream that you're dreaming of me.



I wake up early to whisper my immense love

into your ear & pass my hand in soft caress

on your tender woman breasts--to stir your heart's

memories of former nights of love, & former dreams,



& when you open up your eyes of dawn,

to be the first thing you see and,

like a fabulous faery tale, make you fall



                 m        l

                    a   d    y



              in love with me

                                              again.
