The Feel of His (or Her) Hands
Poetry or prose about the first time you held someone's hand. Tag me!
from then
tv is on
been dating a few weeks
old fashioned
he's been so sweet
almost too polite
i've never felt this
my heart pounds
find the courage
quickly lose it
whip my arm back
slide fingers between his
finally did it
"was that smooth?"
"very smooth" he laughs
deep relief
he grazes my hand
with his thumb
back and forth
so much comfort
such a small movement
beginning of forever
