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
