Perfect

After your morning run
I watched as you 
Came into the house
After being caught 
In a morning rain

I couldn’t help but notice
When you walked in
That the outline 
Of your summer dress
Clung to you 
Like a second skin

Drenched to the bone
You threw yourself into me
Sharing the dampness
Of a summer’s morning
That was happily dripping 
From your face and breasts

As you soaked me 
In the sparkling wetness
You completely ruined 
My suit and tie

Still…
I couldn’t help thinking
What a beautiful way
That this was
To start my day
