Extraordinary

(Dedication: For my darling Ann)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



Plain looks simple
Subtle feels nice;
Ecstasy knows

~~~~~~~~~


Touch of wonder
Curiosity sums;
Beauty illuminates

~~~~~~~~~


Day unfurls
Simple grandeur;
Familiar feel

~~~~~~~~~


Eyes dazzle
Kindness floods;
All is well

~~~~~~~~~


Travels greet
Here at home;
Thousand journeys

~~~~~~~~~


In haste and heat
Haze or clear skies;
Joy knows wonder

~~~~~~~~~


Day zooms into night
Plumeria evenings;
Colourful hues delight

~~~~~~~~~


After dinner September:
Just for two --
Duku fruit party

~~~~~~~~~


Silver hairlines
Golden moments;
Picture portrait

~~~~~~~~~


Here we sit
Side by side;
Joy enlightens

~~~~~~~~~


Bedside chit-chat
Sleepy eyes sink;
Sweet dreams manoeuvres

~~~~~~~~~


Eye to eye
Cheek to cheek;
Splendour sums

~~~~~~~~~


How the years
Have brought us here;
Simply subtle

~~~~~~~~~


Joy streams
Fullness of love;
Peace simmers well

~~~~~~~~~


Ups and downs and ups
Cache of sweet dreams;
Prompting finesse

~~~~~~~~~


Mystic magic
Mindful moments;
Merry moods

~~~~~~~~~


Who knows heaven
In earthly form?
Hearts sculpts joy

~~~~~~~~~
