Glitter On My Skin

In the soft evening light the sparkles catch my eye I turn my hand this way and that looking up my arm oh, what charm! Some of the glitter from the Christmas decorations has settled on me Oh...what glee! Golden beauty dust decorating me When it touch and handle you the same thing happens what magic! You embellish my being decorative beauty, you are! And when I'm in your presence, when I've had you in my arms When you've rested on my chest and your hands have had time to caress you leave behind sparkles on my skin and hair Sparkles EVERYWHERE shining so bright what delight!! you leave your traces on my everyday life Eileen

:) Well...isn't that just the sweetest thing to say. Thank you, Richard. I was just giving some finishing touches to the tree....golden ribbons. Then when I sat down...I noticed the pretty glitter. I rushed to my laptop to get it all down before it just disappeared....the poem, I mean. :) Thanks for the visit.
