Christmas in bed

It's Christmas this morning
and I've already opened my favorite gift
She lies serenely on my chest breathing quietly
or at least quieter than she was earlier

The wrappings of my gift lie scattered around
They're purple, black and lace
they lay next to the two sweating glasses of orange juice
sitting side by side on the wooden trey
a breakfast trey that was part of my gift

I enjoyed my breakfast thoroughly
though I had not even a bite
well maybe one, but it didn't hurt
my appetite is never quite satisfied
looks like it's time for brunch
