Charles Messina Poet Sijo

Notes About The Poem

Well, this is my first Sijo poem I have attemted to write. Please let me know if I erred in any way.   Thanks so much for reading...All the best...Charlie

Softness of a Woman

A woman's touch, her feel, comforts like that of a down pillow 
As I rest my head upon the smoothness of her soft body, I deep dream 
By her scent, and by her warm breath upon my neck, I awaken
