Purring

Purring
contentedly
just being with my love
and basking in the afterglow
of our ascent to the peak of pleasure,
I now settle, spent and cozy,
in the crook of his arm
like a kitty -
purring

Work of art, Andrea. Continuity and smooth lines sustained throughout. So charming. Thank you so much for your soupmail on Noonday July Sky. I did submit it but cancelled my entry. I wasn’t satisfied it met your criteria re in the moment aspect and juxtaposition. Once again I appreciate your concern Howard
