Ah, a delightful poetic glimpse into the quirks of life. I must say, your choice of imagery is quite vivid and thought-provoking. The juxtaposition of the iconic Don Quixote with a clandestine moment of affection adds an intriguing layer to the scene. And that clever twist at the end with the steam running out in contrast to drifting off is simply delightful.

Thank you for sharing this lovely poem with me! If you have more, I'd be thrilled to hear them as well.
