Cinnamon Laced Coffee

Steam rises from
Cinnamon-laced coffee
Skin on skin
Soft fine hair
Tender touch
awakens my
heart
My skin rises
To meet the hand
The fingers
That gently
Rub my skin
In circles lovingly
I pause
Sipping the
Cinnamon laced
Coffee
I inhale deeply
The soft touch
Tingles
Lingers
Following the traces
Of the fingers
Nerves that had
Been asleep for lifetimes
Awaken from their deep
Slumber
Smells of cedar and jasmine
Mix with cinnamon laced coffee
Hang in the air
And gently land on the finger-traced
paths on my skin.
