Slowly slowly <br />The rippling waves hit the boat <br />A small fishing boat on the lake <br />In which he and I sit <br />Softly back and forth <br /> <br />Waves caused by some water ski <br />Do not disturb us <br /> <br />My hands stretch out on wood <br />Behind me as I look <br />At him <br />He is telling me a story <br />Bashfully looking away <br />Each time I try to catch <br />His eye <br /> <br />Familiarity warms his body <br />To mine <br />The distance is now less <br />But he still looks away <br />I smile <br />He is so cute <br />When he does this <br /> <br />He has no idea how much <br />I love him <br />And how happy I am <br />Just being with him <br />Like this <br /> <br />Looking at him <br />Watching him <br />And loving him <br />Always loving him <br />Like this<br /><br />Harriet James<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/slowly-slowly-like-this/
