A Quiet Moment of Beauty

The sun's light slowly rises to pierce the tempered glass of our window and splay its soft glowing rays upon your face to give me a quiet moment of beauty that's not legislated by clocks nor timeless tides Though our arms are empty my eyes hold you in a gentle caress in our precious world of perpetual dreams Knowing we will always be warm together beneath the round skies of tomorrow where we will walk in comfort hands held like young lovers under a trembling moon seeking nothing more than to share years wearing soft coats of yesterdays filled with jeweled memories polished by hands of love Though we shall never pass this way again we have passed and in doing understand we have become a quiet moment of beauty not legislated by clocks nor timeless tides 3/24/19
