the road home

good to be back
on a rainy day, the splash of
it
on the roads, the wet
ribbons
that lead me home.
quickly I disrobe, and turn
the heat up.
I spy the rum cake,
and fix a cup of coffee.
a book, a blanket,
a doze.
what's missing is you
here beside me, snuggled
and spooned
side by side. your long
arms around me.
your heart beating
next to mine.
