NAKED IN OUR BEDROOM
The ease you have in your own skin
Bespeaks confidence from within,
Acceptance of the way God made
You, as like Adam you parade
In the hallowed sanctuary
Of bedroom shared maritally.
The sight inspires security
To join you in your nudity,
Becoming like Adam and Eve
Before the serpent did deceive,
To bite the Divine hand that fed
Them, be ashamed to be naked.
Within the mirror you and I
Our joint reflection we espy.
You turn to me and take my hand
Like on our wedding day, then stand
Sharing the view into the glass,
Which no longer can embarrass.
We reflect on years gone and come,
Including being Dad and Mum,
Good times and hardships we both shared
Leaving their marks on the skin bared.
Then you say, not just dutiful,
"Your body, still, is beautiful,"
Bespeaks confidence from within,
Acceptance of the way God made
You, as like Adam you parade
In the hallowed sanctuary
Of bedroom shared maritally.
The sight inspires security
To join you in your nudity,
Becoming like Adam and Eve
Before the serpent did deceive,
To bite the Divine hand that fed
Them, be ashamed to be naked.
Within the mirror you and I
Our joint reflection we espy.
You turn to me and take my hand
Like on our wedding day, then stand
Sharing the view into the glass,
Which no longer can embarrass.
We reflect on years gone and come,
Including being Dad and Mum,
Good times and hardships we both shared
Leaving their marks on the skin bared.
Then you say, not just dutiful,
"Your body, still, is beautiful,"

Beautifully written for your wife....Descriptively enchanting and stunning that through the years, you still feel that way about her, still looking at her with fresh eyes as in the days of youth....Beautiful!!!!
LOL - I should have put a disclaimer that this poem is not autobiographical as I am not married and have had no children with anyone! I wrote this based on the experiences of other couples read about in novels and books on marital issues. However that could apply to me if I did marry as I expect my wife would no doubt not be less than my own present age decade and more likely than not been a mother, so at that stage of life I don't expect we would both be models of production line perfection.
This and others have been inspired by the freedom I enjoy, now that I have set up home on my own, to go naked indoors. I am an unabashed Genesis 2 man underneath!
The poem is written as if narrated by the wife so it is not autobiographical in that sense. However I am not offended by your mistake!
