On The Rise
by Maryann Hazen Stearns

above your knee and below the bulge
of her hips the moon rises
like you rise
night after night
and she lies in wait
on her side spooned
into you beneath the cover
of flannel and it's all you can do
to let the woman sleep
for a while before
you begin rising
into her again
