Landscape

Just as the moon rises each night and even as snow is caressed by its light, then glowing, I'll rise, becoming your dawn, your curved sleeping form to smile upon. With eyes like bright stars, I then will embrace the landscape of you, each small line on your face. And surely you’ll mirror my worshiping glow, for I am your moon and you are my snow. I’ll keep shining down with each breath you take. May I blaze in your dreams before you awake. And barely I’ll whisper, “Keep sleeping, my dear.” Your faithful beloved, I’ll always be here. 9/14/2010 it was posted here but I believe it was written several years earlier. I don't know when. Maybe before 2005! An OLD poem!! For the "Your Favorite Old Poem Contest" of shadow Hamilton
