In public, he always gently
rests his hand on the
small of her back, just
under her shirt.
A secret love code.
Today
his hands remain
in his pockets.

Ooh, I love this. Great noticing moments
I really enjoyed this preciseness of these images, and how the end twists the reader’s expectations
Somehow I feel like a voyeur reading this poem, as if I’ve intruded on an intimate moment. The ending lines just convey so much! Nicely done, Wendy!
Beautiful.
Sweet…and yet…! Nicely done!
In a world with so much sadness the ability to turn it into beauty is a rare and essential coping skill. Thank you for sharing.
Captures a pivotal moment. A perfectly rendered snapshot. Nicely done.
