Poetry of a long lost poet

This Morning

This morning I weaved into the bathroom
my pink cotton nightgown hanging from
pert breasts, in the mirror hair disarranged

The bath was still full, left, a calm baby blue
cool, but not cold, I swirled my fingers
in the water, still soft from the since
subsided lavendar bubbles

I considered slipping in
shedding the gown and
awakening my skin

Back in bed, I slowly
touch you awakes
watch you shake small
white feathers from deep
within your curls
