Breast against breasts as we fall asleep in the same position we left off in. Waking up then, to the sound of her still sleeping and her hands from a cuddle too being a wrapped around hug against my back,
I take a minute to appreciate these small moments of bliss, instances of collaborative compilations of the percolated good morning coffee daydreams of waking up together. Envisions of our day’s entails all taken in as I manage to sneak away to get dressed.
I bring up a cup of good morning and put it on the table beside the bed, her smile wakes up before her eyelids lift to my favorite site... Suddenly all the wonderful thought-up things to say had left my mouth before I could contemplate the words out loud. Her half-measured smile appears as quickly as her good morning against my lips. After all the coffee daydreams, fantasies of how our day would be spent and all the wonderful things I said...I realized, shit...
I've been bested by a kiss.

Million Thought up Ways to Tell You I Love You
It's hard not to be able to reach out my hand and brush the day’s lipstick off your lips, to feel your body's quiver through my fingertips as you lift up your hand to coexist with mine against your cheek as I move in and pull you close too ask you about your day.

How the Harvest Mouse Came to Suisun Bay
A long, long time ago there was a family of harvest mice. Mice are common, but these were unique – born to those who had lived in the salty, marshy bay for many generations, these mice ate and drank from the sea as well as the land and rivers. For generations, there were only the southern families, scattered along the marshes of Corte Madera and in the San Francisco Bay (U.S. Fish & Wildlife, 2013). One family, however, would undergo strife and conflict before reaching a whole new world. What became of them after is another tale entirely – but this is how their story begins.
