In Anticipation of You
Peering around the edges of the yellow-orange sky
dancing under cover of the morning mist
gently you tickle my cheek
whisper good morning my love
onto my once shut slumbered eyes
greet me with your perfect smile
leave me breathless in wake of your beauty
and remind me of why
why my mornings are brighter
why it's great to be alive
The hummingbird flutters out in the meadow
sucking nectar from the most beautiful wildflower
and my thoughts turn to you
and to us
our last night kiss
how you gave to me your heart
butterflies flutter inside of me
and I know
be it slow or fast
racing to your arms
or just waiting
my heart beats
in anticipation
of you
