A Peaceful Smile

"Before the winds were born and there were signs of life, your beauty was already stirring inside my soul." Star light shine down for me this night for I may see just one more time through hungry eyes a solemn soul still in contemplation Strokes gentle in a sea of silk reflected in a perfect way showing beauty unknown still seeing faults Night carry your breeze to her side blow away any guilt leaving just visions still and a peaceful smile

When we truly love someone, we can overlook minor faults. I like the way you summon night's "breeze" to blow away her guilt and leave her with a lingering smile of peace. Your poetry comes from your tender heart, Tim. Beautiful!
