summer Villanelle

You know exactly what to do -

Your kiss, your fingers on my thigh -

I think of little else but you.

It's bliss to have a lover who,

Touching one shoulder, makes me sigh -

You know exactly what to do.

You make me happy through and through,

The way the sun lights up the sky -

I think of little else but you.

I hardly sleep, an hour or two,

I can't eat much and this is why -

You know exactly what to do.

The movie in my mind is blue -

As June runs into warm July

I think of little else but you.

But is it love ? And is it true?

Who cares? This much I can't deny:

You know exactly what to do;

I think of little else but you.

Is her name Wendy? It's so nice that you think of yourself as romantic. It always helps when choosing Christmas gifts for loved ones!! 😉😉😉

I hope that's true - can't be said of a lot of men!
