Watching a show that we know by heart,

Snuggled up in comfy clothes,

Stealing away a few moments just for us.

The house is quiet, no visitors or house guests.

Just the furballs running around.

No work or chores to distract; they can wait.

I block your view and smile innocently,

Then I step up on the couch, straddle your lap and sit.

Nothing sexual, just to be close.

I kiss your cheek as you wrap your arms around me,

Embracing me in a hug.

I rest my head aside yours,

My arms draped over your shoulders,

And there we sit, enjoying the moment.

This is my favorite way to connect.

What is yours?
