Another open eye dream..... our Holiday

Its a beautiful lazy morning, I have just opened my eyes to chirping birds and rustling branches of a tree right outside the open window of our hotel room. Its breezy and warm outside. The swishing leaves on the tree give me a reason not to get off the bed but I have a bigger reason to be up and about, I am with Tina and I want to "live" every moment with her.

I turn around to find Tina still in her slumber, although she usually is an early riser, I guess the holiday mood has taken hold of her and she is rightfully giving herself the rest she deserves. Her face is so serene and she seems so much at peace, so much so that I just want to watch her sleep to her hearts content. I decide to make her some tea, just the way she likes it, black with milk separate.

I jump out of the bed and rush to the kitchenette, I fill the kettle with some water and keep it on the stove as I watch Tina shift. Damn...she is so graceful even while she is asleep. I walk up to her and give her a light peck on her lips. She shifts again and turns her bare back towards me.

I watch her and what I see makes me wish that I was a really good painter. I see Tina lying down with her flowing mane. Her back exposed till her hips and the quilt covering up the rest as though she did that on purpose to tease me. Its warm and fuzzy, so I am not too concerned about her feeling cold. I am just taking in the sight of watching my beautiful mate sleep so blissfully. It was such a picture perfect moment with lots of natural light filling up the room.

Actually, I always enjoyed watching her go to sleep. She would carefully sort her long hair out and lay it down ever so gently on her pillow before resting her head. She hated the fact that sometimes her hair got pulled under her own body. I always loved the way she took care of herself. Honestly, there is so much to learn from your partner if you really want to make a relationship work.

My chain of thoughts is broken by the sound of church bells going off after the morning mass at a nearby church. I get back to making tea and prepare a nice strong concoction and add a dash of ginger to it. I carefully filter the concoction into a cup and take some milk along. I put the cups on a tray and go over to Tina. I sit beside her and gently kiss her back, she purrs and opens her eyes and smiles. That is the smile I want to see everyday when I wake up. And I want to wake up next to her everyday.

She gets off the bed, wraps the quilt around herself and walks over to the window and stretches. I walk with her, put the tray on the window sill and make her some tea. Black with very little milk and a teaspoon and a half of sugar.

The remainder of our life has just begun........ I love you baby. Have a great day
