Natural Posture

In my mind my dream-lover walks,
Not hunched or stooped over,
But chin up, hips swinging, legs strutting,
In the natural pose of a dream-lover.

In my mind my dream-lover laughs,
Not with her face wrinkled or frowning,
But smile wide, eyes wide, teeth flashing,
Her natural posture her face crowning.

In my mind my dream-lover lies,
Not curled or hunched in on her form,
But sprawling, reaching and conquering,
Her natural posture relaxed and warm.

In my mind my dream-lover sleeps,
Not restless or nightmarish seeming,
But with her face still, lips faintly curved,
The natural pose of a dream-lover dreaming.
