THE WEEKLY TREAT
The dog is still asleep. The kids are, too,
so we’ll indulge ourselves; we always do.
It’s utter bliss – I wait for this all week
(but... better check and take a little peek):
Right, not a sound. Oh, goody, it’s your turn,
so I’ll just lie here while you do it. YEARN –
yes, that’s the word – I’m yearning for it now.
I love the way you do it; you know how
I like it, don’t you, Darling? Since you said
that you enjoy it most when we’re in bed,
and, Sundays, we would do it if we could,
we’ve managed it most weeks. It feels so good.
I’m ready for it – no, no, no, don’t tease!
I want it badly – pass my cuppa, please.
