Midnight-dark hair flows like silk through my fingers. His skin
burns against mine, and his kiss, tender in the aftermath of passion,
is sweet. I feel his soft breath, quieting now, warm against my

I too am exhausted by our loving, but here, now, I want nothing but to
lie in his gentle embrace.
I love you, my husband. You are my world.
