I will slap your bare bottom
With my bare hand
A swift and stinging connection
Leaving a mark of discipline

Not out of anger
But out of love
A firm reminder of boundaries
And the consequences of crossing them

The echo of the impact
Ringing through the air
A moment of shock
Followed by understanding

I will hold you close
After the sting has faded
Assuring you of my love
And the importance of respect

Our bond strengthened
By this act of discipline
A lesson learned
In the language of love
