Nocturnal Acrostics

by crowleyscardigan and jesmalestiel (originally published on AO3)

Summary:

Four short poems concerning sleepwear, formatted in the acrostic style. This piece can stand alone from the rest of the series, and is part of the GOetry Pillow Fight Event with the prompt “pyjamas”.

PYJAMAS

Perhaps it’s a little silly
You may find it strange
Just how much I find myself
Adoring how you look resting
My lovely Angel, tucked
Away in our soft bed
Sleeping in tartan pyjamas

NEGLIGEE

Never did I imagine 
Ever seeing you like this,
Gorgeous, flushed, all your
Layers shed, leaving only the prettiest 
Ivory lace. A sight only I
Get to see.
Every time we touch, I am
Enraptured by you.

ROBE

Reading alone in
Our bed is lonely
Before you join me; then
Everything is at peace

LINGERIE

Lightly I whisper
In your ear that
Nothing has ever looked as
Gorgeous as your form
Encased in shimmering gauze
Right before you take it off and
I am forced to admit that your
Effort outmatches its silken trappings.
