Cuteness

cute

Meow

The tiny language
of love
in your small gestures.

Dimpled knees
Freckled toes
A winking elbow
Your thumb waves
a secret hello.

The corner of your eye
a vision of welcome.
The press of your lips
invites inspection.

Your temple hums
with welcome.
Your earlobe perks
when I joke.

The eyebrow lifts
with critique
Your little finger quivers
feigned disinterest

Your voice purrs
In a whisper

The eyes go left
to avoid my right.
The butt shifts right
to evade my advance.

You’re so adorable,
with your hidden,
quiet, subtle symphony,
of cute love.

What a flirt.
Bow Wow.
