A Speck of Light

Long after she slips into seclusion
where streaks of splendor once plied
crimson lines of love holding off night
caresses enhance final specks of light

Love filters in waiting moments still
before weary days drift off to dream
and I'm left in anticipation of you
to climb into every bit of my soul

Rest now dear, for the night chills
comfort comes in the heart of two
beauty in the breeze whispers softly
let the rhythm inside move the moon

You do romance extremely well, Tim. Surely, someone with so much romanticism can't be denied forever:)

I was fairly certain I wouldn't be the first to comment on this one, Tim, nevertheless I want to commend you for the silken exquisiteness of these rhyming verses. It's one of the most gentile and loving I've read lately.
