lovers new at play

chivalric
smiles of lips too sweet
in hesitance approaching,
may I…open the wine

he asks seeming meek.

she turns
a coy smile newly learned
teasing eyes brightly,
good sir please as much
as you have discerned…

and stops mid-tease
yes, please, open it for me.
She forgets to breathe in
gleaning underlying strength.
