Just Another Day

~ I gaze at the sunrise, it’s apricot view While spending my morning just thinking of you It’s glow on the heavens a magical scene Of lemonade wishes and cantaloupe sheen Though still it is muted an off color shade As something is missing this dawn now displayed For until your beautiful smile comes my way This morn will be merely just another day ~

You write of love, as it were dipped in sweetness. Honey oozes from your pen. Strawberries and cream have caressed moments from pen, perhaps a little more. As always, your thoughts bring a smile and a soft sigh. Congratulations Chris, on Poem of the Day. :) Brandy
