Hot Tub

The steam rises from the hot tub The temperature says one hundred degrees We both slid in naked With oh so little ease The jet streams hit our body In places we don't mention But the force of the water Does get our attention A glass of wine, to help unwind As conversation fills the air Neither one will say it But we know we both care The stars hang high, in the sky As clouds block the view As I look into the water I love to see a naked you We exit the tub to dry ourselves As a cool breeze lends a hand With a towel wrapped around tight Together we pause as we stand We make our way to the bed We lay as close as we can Naked again under the covers Life I begin to understand Years ago you and I Both went our separate ways It seems like ancient history To think back to those days As the years have made us older They have also made us mature Knowing that we can handle What we're doing here for sure Exactly what we're doing Sometimes is hard to tell But I know that our past Can help us out as well. © 10-17-10/RJH
