Poem for her 806

Dear Readers,

Finger tips

Soft skin under finger tips
There at thumb pad
Rub the fingers into fingers
Soft skin under finger tips
Back of neck, back of leg
There the edges of a shirt
Then the fingers take a sock off
The toes alabaster white
Kiss of edge of finger tips
Where skin meets pant leg
Are we dressing
Or undressing
Always the same edges
The same soft skin
Covered and uncovered
In the fingers
Tips to tells the edges still
Over the ages soft
There the morning evening run
Blended into the setting sun
Days of you in my hands
Slow till the clock stops
Breath warm in dusk light

Happy Birthday Babe,

Charles.
