Her Senior Year

*for AG

Last leg home, the sun setting in the polluted haze of the city,
looks Like I feel, my thoughts a golden glow, every brushstroke

       I've painted filling the sky with my love for you...a painting
that will begin anew....with the sunrise
........with the sunrise

Though your footprints belong to you,
                                           my heart..... travels your path

Endless, as it should be,
                                         your destiny rewards my memory

Wow! This is really nice. I didn't expect a piece about love for this contest; but I guess anything fits and I think you hit the nail right on the head with this one. Congratulations on placing in this contest!
