As Lovers Do

The first rays of dawn bring a garnish of warm soft hues that coat the meadow in a glistening mantle as we journey on beckoning spiraling slopes of fallen dew to see the sunrise from the highest hill as lovers do With tender fingers securely enveloped in joyous wonder like an oyster shell protecting the rarest pearl found in the emotional depth of serenity and wondrous beauty when a red pastel sky turns a rich velvet blue Inviting us to soar like birds on delicate wings of imagination and endlessly float on love's sweet fragrant breath Yearning to paint a thousand pictures rendered by love's artistic hands framed by the hunger of our desire When beneath the sun's splayed light, we kissed becoming tethered by love's silent capture regaled by the morning's mist to feel the world melt away in solemn grace where time is forever still from the sighing moment of our surrender as truth becomes unspoken and love frees the soul's jeweled reflections glimmering in the farthest realms of the eyes shinning bright as a wishful sense of shared awe 11/22/20
