Fascination

I see you...
                                  above my porch;
                                        Roses...
                                pink, red and white
                                 dancing in delight
                                    like my heart
                                        beating
                               when your face turns
                                         aglow.
                                      I feel you...
                                   'neath my skin...
                                 warm as an ember
                                in the coldest winter;
                                         YOU...
                                 turn it to summer.
