I have a memory...

that comes back to me from my youth; a scene of watching a woman asleep on my bed, the curtains doing that very thing,
exhaling a cooling breeze, like blowing on a hot spoonful of soup. Getting ready for the next sip. Very nice! ~ Geez.

Hello, Geezer!

Wow..."a cooling breeze, like blowing on a hot spoonful of soup." What an absolutely great visual! Maybe the foundation for a Geezer haiku / poem?
Thank you for reading and sharing your wonderful memory!
