My Favorite Indulgence

My favorite indulgence may sound strange to you, 
But it is something relaxing I enjoy to do. 

You may be wondering what could it be, 
I'll give you a hint,  no one else is involved, only me. 

Odd as it may seem that it's a fun thing for one, 
But i go in the shower and think of the sun. 

I feel the hot water on my skin and face, 
The feeling of purity is a something I will always embrace. 

The water runs down my back and through my hair, 
I love this feeling and it's something I won't share. 

It rids me of the fast paced day that I had, 
And I always feel happy, never sad. 

When my indulgence is over and my shower is though, 
Nothing can bring me down or make me feel blue. 

This is my secret that makes me smile, 
You should try it sometime, just for a quick while.

Your story falls within the category of whimsical, fanciful and imaginative; armed with an energy of its own that propels it into our sphere of reality. The imagery is perfect. Emile. #7 (day the I had ?)
