Heaven's Gift

A simple glance, is all I ask of you Steal away my breath, like you always do The flowers faint, each time that you walk by Even the breeze, honors you with his sigh The sun now shines with an envious glow Hiding in the clouds, too ashamed to show A beautiful gem, sparkling so bright Even the darkness, whispers of your light A poet's verse, love, in the purest rhyme Thief of my attention, keeper of time Even Shakespere himself, would surely fail Searching for words, of your beauty to tell Setting minds to wander, and souls adrift Your beauty so pure, simply Heaven's gift
