Description
His bed is warm, familiar, and it smells
familiar too, the mingled scents
of sweat, wood and tobacco, and the sweet-
scented soap he washes with. I lie here
beside him every night. Sometimes I slip
in by him while he sleeps, burrow my face
behind his soft back. The smell of his body
is warm, comforting as any blanket.
I fall asleep in the soft grateful glow,
of having this, my portion, here on earth.
