Brief Moment

how to describe the brief moment in time
nothing was said so nothing was heard
a family's home like so many others
a son's observation but not even a word

I was drying my hair out of my bath
he was across the room his head in a book
except for a glance and more like a stare
he was gazing my towel a forelorn kind of look

I stopped and I meant for him to as well
he didn't at all as if he didn't care
I felt amused rather than being ticked
an older quiet lady worse she could fare

trying to interrupt him I teased with a shake
when he didn't move I determined to break
his wonderment his fascination with just me
one last tactic I decided for humor's sake

hands pulled the towel open and free
my head lifted defiantly letting him look at me
the breasts full and the mound still wet
never again such a moment be

pulling the towel back to, it was over you see
this brief moment we had this brief exchange
never have we spoken about this until now
this brief moment he wants to arrange
