Mistletoe Still Works
Mistletoe still works wonders
Makes me feel romantic
Allows me to make the first moves
Without apology
I lean in
He jumps back, startled
Now understanding
Knows better than to grab me
It has to be my way
My pace,
My moves,
I like being in control of my romantic encounters
My husband understands, and waits
Expectantly, eager to see what I will do next.
Mistletoe for everyone! I think.
I lean in.
This time he is less afraid.
