Slow

A cup of slowly brewed tea. On a weekday.

A newspaper read leisurely. Un-skimmed.

Butter and toast. Savoured. Ungulped. 

A 'go-safely' kiss. Experienced. Un-exchanged

A car driven. Un-raced. 

A piece of work well done. Un-incomplete. 

The bus ride back home. Slow. Un-screeched. 

A lingering conversation. Noiseless. Uncluttered. 

The dinner cooked on a slow flame.Simmered. Un-instant. 

The slow touch of your hand down my back. Assured. Unhurried. 

A slumber well deserved. Deep. Unchecked.
