The dessert spoon rests within the ladle,
cuddling concavely
in perfect proportional alignment.
Your head tucked beneath my chin
provides the constant comfort of your hair's scent
sans the nose tickles and mouth stuffings
endured from past imperfects.
As you request, for your security,
I cup your right breast throughout the night,
marveling over your nipple's nocturnal fickleness,
teasing it as you sleep in hopes of steering your dreams
down salacious avenues.
Your lush bottom, for my security,
is always there, right there where it should be,
obliviously kissing me in slumber,
but well you know that without fail
this spoon stirs in the night,
and will at some point dip into the warm sauce
left on your stove.
Contently you lie there, unaware
of the darkened hours I spend
quietly relishing the correctness
of you in my arms,
sheltering and protecting you
as I peer into our shadows,
ever vigilant, yet ever distracted:
your allure never sleeps.
Stealthily I ply myself to you,
aiming to disturb you
without waking you.
Wickedly I revel in the grumpy sounds
and little wiggles you make
as you snooze and ooze,
dreaming me slowly inside you,
until at once you awaken with a clench
filled with me, and the sauce boils over
as you are turned over
and Daddy rocks Baby back to sleep.
