Afterwards

Hugs, kisses,

and lots of wine,

dances, desires,

and songs from a while.

Presents, flowers,

food, and some sweets,

we reached Heaven,

our night was completed.

I don't want you to leave,

that's not who I am;

I want you to stay,

we will do it again...

...our first Valentine.

Started writing short stories back in 1988 at work, when I had an empty page to fill for the employee's internal magazine. Taking the pen again after a 30 year-long hiatus, exploring where it takes me this time.
