Woman

The pert breasts of a woman
Her open legs
It's been a while her wetness
Ecstasy and comfort

She gives her femininity
Cuts my toe-nails on a floor in Chiang Mai
Washes my hair, scrubs my back

I do the same for her
Turning her and smoothing
Kiss as the water cascades

"Do my hair one more time", she says confidently
Handing me the shampoo
Her close skin and the water

We go outside on the veranda
Share a nicotine fix
Both happy at that moment

I've found enlightenment
A smiling Zen monk
Caught by the glint in your eye
And your tenderness woman
